Collectors Looking for PCGS Walker's w/CAC, Mainly MS65, 66

winesteven · August 9, 2022 8:23AM

Each week I search many sites for coins I need. One of those sites is David Lawrence Rare Coins (DLRC). I see that in their upcoming auction #1235 they have 34 Walker's graded by PCGS mainly MS65 and MS66, each with a CAC. These 34 each have the DLRC Five Stars for eye appeal. As a generalization, these are NOT toners. I am NOT the consigner, and I don't know the consigner. I have no personal interest in these coins, and will NOT be bidding. I made this post ONLY for the purpose of potentially helping out others who may have interest in this series. There are an additional 31 other Walker's in that auction also with a CAC, but those only have the DLRC Four Stars for eye appeal.

If the consigner reads this, he or she can contact me to get the name of my favorite charity, and make a donation in my honor, lol.

While I have made a couple of edits, those were just for spelling and grammar. The three sentences in bold in the middle of the main paragraph were included when I created this post very early today.

Thank you for sharing ☺️

Yes, thank you for sharing this. I have purchased from them before, and have not been disappointed.

Seems like a post for the BST. I know many will disagree.

Or maybe on the PCGS Set Registry Forum?

I've seen another member regularly post HIS coins at auction on PCGS Forum sites other than the BS&T, and was surprised the mods allow it to stay. I chose to post it on this forum since I believe there are many collectors of Walker's who read this forum, and don't read the BS&T and may or may not participate in the Registry. As noted in my post, my objective is to help those Walker collectors, and I believe this was the best way to do it. My title is clear enough so that those that have no interest can choose to avoid opening this post!

Do you attack Ian when he posts kool coins on Great Collections?

@winosteve If you announced your aunt Sally was baking pies for sale from her front porch next week, would you give us directions?

If so, how about a link?

Thanks Steve, I'll take a peak.

Thanks @winesteven, heads up on stuff like this is appreciated, the auction houses probably don't mind either.

I think the Walking Liberty Half Dollar is by far the most enjoyable series for my pocket depth. MS 65 - MS 66 short set coins aren't that expensive either. Should be spirited bidding. Thanks for the heads up.

I think you recognize this is a COIN forum, so I tried to help others out who might be interested in obtaining nice MS65 or 66 Walker’s graded by our host. Apparently the consignor put in an auction close to a complete set of Walker’s. So even though I have no interest in that series, the way I think, I wanted to alert others reading this forum that are interested in Walker’s so they can decide if they want to improve their collections. It’s clear you think differently than me in helping others with their collections.

Oh, this forum has nothing to do with baked pies, so I would have no interest in posting off topic information like that, lol. I’m surprised that’s the analogy you chose to make.

You picked Steve the wino not Steven the wine guy

As always, thank you for your contributions to fellow collectors. Be well Steve

This grouping also includes the early dates in circulated grades (most with CAC). Very nice collection.

ricko · August 10, 2022 6:02AM

They are very nice coins and the post will steer WLH collectors in the right direction. Thanks for the information. Cheers, RickO

There's a difference?

I’m curious. Do you find DL’s five star for eye appeal to be reliable in general?

For ME, I will not buy any of their coins marked as Four Star. That doesn't mean I always like the eye appeal of every Five Star coin they show. Eye appeal is SO VERY subjective and personal.

I'm convinced there are many coins of mine that I like that you would not, and vice versa. But if DLRC is coming right out and saying it's Four Stars, I pass, but that's just me. Others may like it, and chances are a coin being Four Star for eye appeal will cost less than had the eye appeal been "better". Some collectors will accept that trade-off to save money, and that's OK!
