Gorgeous Indian Cent Jason!! I'm glad you made the right choice. The regret of overspending tends to fade faster than the regret of not buying it when you had the chance. Not that I am saying you overspent. I know the feeling of pondering spending all of your money right off the bat.
I thought at the time that I had overspent. Given the upgrade on cross to +, and this recent upgrade to PL..... I've probably at least doubled my initial purchase. Zero regrets at all... this coin is one of the sparkling highlights of my collection. And that's the whole point of this thread - if you find a coin that speaks to you, buy it!
Incredible coin and congrats on the upgrade and adding the PL. A few times a year I go back and look through your PL set. It’s truely one of a kind. Also thank you for your book. I purchased it early in my numismatic journey and it’s helped to set the par for my own collection. Cheers to the New Year. Hope it’s a great one for you!
