This will likely be my final upgrade as I really like this one. Found in the wild which is my favorite way to find them. Very nice and original looking skin with some color, especially on the reverse. There is some blue buried in the olive branches and nice color around the obverse devices.
Feel free to GTG if you want. Here is the link if you want to cheat and/or look at the max size trueview.

I like the coloring on that coin... the reverse especially.
Great coin! Nice find
That's a very attractive Walker-maybe a 64?

Like how the toning brings out the details, especially on the eagle feathers.

Beautiful coin. I grade it "buy me!"
You couldn't tell it from MY collection, but the Eagle on Walkers has FEATHERS everywhere!!!
Amazing. Did you find it in a box of bank rolls or from a customer roll?
Awesome looking Walker @clarkbar04!
That magical place that only sells problem coins, ebay.
Beautiful Walker!

PM me what you paid for it...I'm dying to know.
Nice Coin...
Very attractive toning! Nice coin!
Excellent Jeremy!
WOW - beauteous coin! I originally thought "wild" meant in change, etc. WTF do I know?? But even eBay raw is a nice score! Congrats! BAM!!
That is a great find. While I am not a fan of tarnish, the condition of the coin is great for 102 years old. Cheers, RickO
Nice and I like the tarnish
Just gorgeous!
Beautiful. Wish all my silver looked like that. Great example, for sure.

It's tough to get near gem grades like that on coins that were raw as I assume that was what you meant.
I bought a lustrous one once from a dealer who thought it was a lock 64, but after it came back a 63 I did not resubmit.
I thought it just meant raw, maybe you are right though.
A superb walker and you do have a refined eye for these too.
👍🏻👍🏻
you did well with that one, I like as well. best wishes
