I paid a little more than I usually would, but that is a NICE coin, and I've barely lost quite a few coins lately, so I was in the mood to actually fill a hole for once. Hopefully it's as nice as it is in the pictures; I'll post some when it gets here.

I certainly don't think you overpaid for the example by much if anything at all. The pricing will most likely go up over time as well, even with the relatively high mintage. It is a variety also, which helps. Oh, and did I mention, it's a beautiful coin. Well done.
Rest in Peace

Oh yeah, I know, it's a decent price compared to what I looked at, I usually just go for deals, but I figure if it's just for my set...then well, I can spend a little more. I also like getting sliders because I have a lot of holes to fill, and if I can get a nice toned coin with only the slightest trace of wear and nice luster, then that's better than blowing four times as much on an all white unc.

That's a beauty and I think you got it for a fair price. You normally have to pay extra for eye appeal and it looks like you scored!

I wonder if the triple-die reverse adds any premium for this coin? If you can, please post some close-ups when you get it. It would be nice to see exactly what those triple-die details look like.

Congrats!

For what its worth, Cherrypickers lists that variety with about a 2x premium in AU.
Very nice coin

Wow, I bought it thinking it wasn't worth much more, so I guess this was a great deal!

nice piece, and nice looking.
I (sometimes) prefer those AU-50-58's over uncs.

They can be much nicer looking.

And, a nice variety to boot.
