Haha....no, but I wish I paid $50. Dobbs, Knox and Stetson each had hats named after their prices (Fifty, Twenty and Fifteen for Knox and Dobbs). Stetson later made a '100' (that cost $100) which was used almost exclusively as a presentation hat - it was the exact style LBJ and Eisenhower wore. This one is odd in that it does not have a bound brim, but instead has the more expensive 'Cavanagh Edge', even stranger on a dress western like this.
