The dark patina will stand out in a collection of much whiter coins.
Probably best to get it slabbed, because the color contrast will be ameliorated somewhat.


That's the thing. It fits in well with my set of toned capped bust halves.

Really nice CBH!

What the OP coin is saying to me; "I am ready for my closeup" as the light shines onto her face.

A friend of mine had a signature line that read "great coins are not cheap, and cheap coins are not great".....and that is a great coin!
I would imagine that if you hadn't stepped up to buy this beautiful bust, you would be kicking yourself for the next month!

So does the slab.

You had to reach, but others have reached higher for this year in this grade (and you know as well as I that this one's undergraded in that slab ).

You're not going to regret this one. It's as good in the huge Heritage images as it was here.
Rest in Peace

Over-paying for a coin only applies if you sell it for less. Congrats!

Paying a premium for something that makes you happy is normal. I don't know much about these but its beautiful! I will pay more for something that gives me pride to own.
