This coin was in a recent Heritage auction and I like its charm. I think the color is a bit unusual and may not be for you.
These Heritage pics are glamorous but it does highlight the various colors nicely.
Here's a video for the in-hand view (click on the lower right hand corner for a larger view):

This coin fits in well with other seated halves that I own so I'm content.
Thought I'd share while sipping on some Longbranch whiskey on ice.

Very nice piece. Especially like the tone!!
I like it a lot Cat! And the date is one of my favs too. Great coin.
I really, really like it!
And it looks chiseled, too.
The OGH and the bean add to the allure.
Cheers, and enjoy that whiskey.
Big congrats!!

I like the tone on the in hand video - not the guadiness in the photos from Heritage.

That strike is almost like a proof. With that color and strike, no wonder it comes CAC stickered.
Great color, fantastic coin. Love it.
Like it a lot Cat!
Great looking coin @Catbert ! You're building a superb set.
First, I really like the coin. Seems undergraded but maybe it’s a slider.
Second, I like your video much more than the somewhat lifeless, 2-D Heritage photos. I don’t think they did any favors for this coin.
Edit to add: your video shows the coin has a real vibrancy of a coin with a higher grade. I think you did well.
Enjoy it!

Very nice piece @Catbert . You have and excellent eye for coins.
I am a newer collector (started April 2020), and I primarily focus on U.S. Half Cents and Type Coins. Early copper is my favorite.
Beauty of a coin Catbert !!! Love it
Great seated half, I love the look!
Such cool colors, you've got my head spinning!
Nice example Catbert. Enjoying it with a little Macallan 12.

Pretty nice for a "Civil War quarter."
Well, not everyone can like it, right? So let me be the first to say that I don’t like it
that it’s not mine.

That's my kinda coin right there!

That's top shelf for sure! That's one nasty date to find in decent condition, whether circulated or MS. Like the above poster has already said, the Heritage images make the coin look worse than in hand. But being able to read that quirk has provided some very nice coins in my collection.
