Started a WLH Proof Registry Set today.

I have the 1939-1942 and need to add the 1936-1938 coins.
The 1939 and 1940 are PF67. The 1941 and 1942 at PF65. The 1939 and 1941 have attractive multi colored toning.
I bought the 1939 already graded and made the 1940-1942 halves from raw submissions.
A fun project.

Sounds like you’re off to one heck of a start!
Where are the pictures? 😥
I’ve often thought of purchasing some walker proofs. Someday, I will, as it’s one of many projects on my to-do list. I would love to see pictures of your Coins. It sounds like you’re off to a good start.
Sometimes, it’s better to be LUCKY than good. 🍀 🍺👍

Have fun with that one 🙂
You're in for some good stuff, stay tuned!
EDIT: I posted a pic that was not SanctionII's coin and deleted. Sorry.
I agree! I started out like gang busters acquiring these 4 pretty quickly, although recently PR67 CAC’s have dried up for me. Still need the elusive 1936 and the 2 more common 1940 and 1941.
Best of luck in your pursuit .

Congrats on your start to this set.
This is my PF-66:
it's a fun set. Even though mine is complete I seem to keep adding to it

I have learned to stay away from the registry craze. It's a good way to end up wasting money if you are determined to be at the top of the heap.
I have a set of the Proof sets from 1936 to 1942. The half dollars range in grade from PR-64, CAC to PR-67. It's never going to win any prizes, but it pleases me and that's all that counts.
A certain unnamed company just added quite a few of those to newps
@SanctionII good luck with your endeavors. Keep us informed with your purchases. Northeast Numismatics has some nice WLH's from time to time. Keep that in mind when you are searching.

Those are all super pretty. I love the subtle blue tone on the 1940.
That 39 is gorgeous
