Picked this up for $50. Was thinking I was maybe overpaying for this, but I liked the late die state flow lines in the obverse and the level of detail. Hopefully the color isn't as pictured in hand. Thoughts on grade and problems? Thanks!

This one came in and the color looks much better as I suspected. It was still a little pricey, but looks great in terms of strike, color and dearth of issues imho. Thoughts? Thanks!

I'm neutral on the coin, but if you are going to post a lot of pics, I suggest a better camera setup as your pics are a bit on the fuzzy side. Just a suggestion.
