thoughts on this 1823 half + bonus classic commems

I've had a surprisingly hard time finding a nice-looking 1823 half for my 7070, but I finally came across this one. (I just wanted that date). I've been slow and picky with this set, but I thought it would fit in nicely. Any thoughts are welcome. (Sorry for the quick cell phone pics)
As a bonus, here's how my commemorative row is shaping up. This gives you an idea of what I'm going for in this album (relatively uniform XFish, with some variation). This has been a fun set to work on!

I like the look alot!
Looks like it has a thick patina, probably bluish grey in hand?
I'd love to see a 7070 with all the silver looking like that!
Nice coins!

That pan pac is sweet

I love that Pan Pac. I had one like that one get away from me years ago on eBay that still haunts me.
I ended up bidding on another dark coin that seemed to have good detail and ended up landing an MS63 for a G4 price. The one that got away still bugs me though.
Very nice!

Sweet coin! Looks to be XF-40. I agree with others, would love to see a 7070 where the silvers are uniform.

@Varlis... That 1823 is a very nice coin... And no apology necessary for that phone picture, it is really a great picture. Cheers, RickO
