I'll go 64.
Is this a trick question?

Without the rub it would be a 64, but I must stand by my AU assessment.
Abrasion wear in skirt/fingers, feathers in leg of eagle (what I don't understand is no wear visible in top of wing crook)
XF-45
But then again, it's just an opinion, hope it's a higher grade for your sake.

If not, I've been continually ripped by the graders at a familiar TPG service.
Weak strike is typical and this one is very weak.
This has serious bag marks and broken rays and the TPGs are tough on these in my experience.

Looking for PCGS AU58 Washington's, 32-63.

I think I need to go back to my proofs.

Actually, San Francisco sucked at Walkers in '40 and '41. I'll be generous and say 64.

Hey, that's not gold!
The coin is in an ANACS MS-64 holder. Thank you, Walker aficionados, for your input.

So...what's going on there above the motto, IN GOD WE TRUST?
Glad you got a nice grade!

I did not "get a grade". I purchased the coin. I also have a 41-S in a PCGS holder (OGH, for those that care), and it looks slightly better. I think the coin posted above is a nice MS-63, and I paid MS-63 money for it.
RYK, your still getting guesses!

OK, I'm not sure. Seems like a lot of luster, but too much wear. I'll say AU58.

Mr. Clinton,
I think that when you look at a lot of 41-S Walkers, you will be surprised at how consistently weak the strike is. Best regards to Hillary.

Very true and nice Walker by the way.
Here are 2 of my AU-58's.
If those two are 58's I over-graded. Change my grade to Au-55...

I was just joking, RYK's Walker is a very nice 63. I like his picture but I think his Walker would look better in hand. I think it has more hand detail than the image shows.
