This post can also go into that thread about overpaying but not caring. This might also rival the 1831 bustie that @AnkurJ got some years ago. This one is graded XF-45, but to my eyes it's a 99!!! It's been fun to show the reverse first to people (which isn't bad at all), then watch their reaction when it's flipped over.

Vibrant, electric toning! I'll have to have my eyes and head examined to make sure I'm not imagining things.
Whoa!! Even better than I thought it was gonna be from reading the title
Lovely!
Silver in all its toned glory!!

I've seen and handled quite a few CBH's over the years and that's the coolest toning that I've ever seen on a circulated one! Wow!![:) :)](https://forums.collectors.com/resources/emoji/smile.png)

Wow! That's one of the few circulated coins below AU that I would have no problems paying moon money for it.
