One thing I wonder about is that the obverse looks less circulated than the reverse.

This is quite apparent in your last pictures. Perhaps the height of the rims may be different and provided better protection for the obverse?
A nice addition to your collection.

Definitely a more natural appearing and attractive coin in hand - Congrats!

I'm still inclined to suggest an acetone bath before storing the coin long-term.
