Paying that price for a problem free coin in that grade range, I think you
did good.
As Celticsoul posted, what to watch out for is surface probliems.
One of my problems when buying large cents is that I look for
scratches and dings, but over look surface problems.
On many large cents, you can expect to find some corrosion
You don't want there to be to much. Of course with surface
problems, the price should be adjusted.
If you are looking to do a nice set/group of large cents, you would
want to stay away from surface problems. I feel you can find most
40's and 50's large cents problem free.
