    The first two digits are correct...

    So that leaves 16, 17, 18, 19, 33, 34, 35, 36, 37, 38, 39, 41, 42, 43, 44, 45, 46, or 47.

    1940 is what I see, probably a figment of my imagination.

    Weak skirt lines, so pre-37. I'm going with 1918.

    The ever so slight hint was stating, "I'll show the reverse later."

    Just a fun thread.
    Thanks for participating!

    You got me. B)
    But who's mint? ;)
    Mason Mint?
    Highland Mint?
    I had a guy at the coin club bring in a SLQ without a date and figured it was an error coin worth??
    Flipped it over and explained the bad news.
    Those do make nice pendants.

    Haha, you got me as well. I almost commented on the unusual date wear pattern, I've never seen that before on a walker. The date wears from the sides (or the left) not the middle.

    Titled at just the right angle a ghost of the "87" is visible.
    1987.

    My guess was going to be contemporary counterfeit.
    The wear pattern does not fit a genuine WLH.
    The rims and central details are ~VG, while even a Poor walker will still have a partial date, as it was heavily recessed.

    All moot now of course…..fun post!

    So give us the history of how that coin came about.

    Looks kinda presidential on the reverse.
    Not like my 1942 guess.

    I didn't reply, but all the above guesses would have been the same as mine if I did.
