    Not going to upgrade, I like the way worn walkers look, ad now I get to work on other coins. I spent about $1500 for the whole group, VF/XF/AU would have cost $15-20K, so I am happy

    That is a great accomplishment. I love the WLH... Big silver coin of my childhood.... Felt good to have one in my pocket... it was a lot of money for a kid back then... Could get five comic books, or two ice cream sundaes and two chocolate bars.... Lots of buying power then. Cheers, RickO
