Raul I love how you find these targets in lesser-known catalogues. I’ll have to put this one on the list. Fine sketch, sir.

Yes this is a fine planetary, quite bright and stellar at low power. You pushed the magnification to reveal that subtle 5 arcsec disk. Beautiful.
As reference, here is my sketch.
