Hello to all!! I collect mexican coins and for the longest time I always wanted a Caballito in ms condition so finally I came around to bidding on a Bowers and Merena auction. I ended up winning a 1912 caballito NGC graded MS-62. With shipping, taxes and (the famous) buyers premium I paid $292 for it. Now I'm getting buyers remorse I need your help.
Did I over pay?
Is it a fair price?
Did I get a good deal?
Here are some links that I used to make my decision of buying it but I dont know if they are good comparables.

The MS62 on Stacks website went for $529.00 You got an NGC MS62 for $292.00. All things being relatively equal I would say you either did good or the purchaser of the Stacks coin overpaid.

Caveat- I am not familiar with this coin and do not know what the price trends are for this coin.
