Another toned Walker Newp!

This one was waiting for me at home when I returned from Baltimore. This is my third walker in recent weeks which include another toner and a proof! I am loving the way some of these look!

No matter what I do, I just cant capture how magnificent the toning is in hand. Bands of luster just roll with the color in such an amazing way! I wish I could show it to all of you in hand.

In any case, here is my attempt at it:

    Ankur nice looking Walker and congrats...Your image looks like a great shot especially for the detail...On my puter it looks to be a bit ghostly looking and possibly would look a bit better with your mid tones darkened a bit...Try playing around without over doing contrast and brightness for the proper look... Again beautiful coin... image

    Very nice! Beautiful piece.

    The toning is beautiful.

    Picture is sharp for the most part, so that is good! The glare is a little much on the reverse, but I'm sure you will get there!
    Very nice.

    For a MS64 this coin did not get a bump for original eye appeal.

    I'm partial to a Walker with some color. This one definitely fills the bill.

    Congrats on the pickup.image

    From the photo the coin looks better.

    I would think the coin was sent to CAC for a Golden Bean.

    It did not get one.
