While your Ornate is quite unique, I have seen a few Plat Ornates, one of which is owned by a serious rare breeds seller friend of mine where I get my PBB from. I don't have a picture of his at hand, bur his looks pure white like this one:

His is around 8-10" in length and has absolutely no color to it.
This is what I would call a true Platinum.

Well the 8-10" one is almost a juvi and that was snow white!

Your Ornate may well be a plat, but I wouldn't personally pay plat money for a fish that is not snow white. Low quality plat?
 
this is like buying a coffee in a cafe, but they give you water instead which taste like a coffee.

can u give me a picture of a young plat orna when he still 10 cm big?the orna picture above already 30cm up..it doesn't be a matter for me if my orna called as a low quality plat..when the first time i heard a plat ornate,i knew i have to get it.3 months i'm searching the ornate,and when the first time i see plat orna,the orna is 20cm big,the body hv no pattern or pure white but the fin still have pattern but same like u, i wouldn't pay plat money that is not snow white.but my mind change when my friend show me the big plat ornate 35cm that hv already pure white and he said that every platinum orna will look like my orna if he still young and turn out into pure white when he hit 30cm up.i buy that ornate from top breeder that already breed that kind of "low quality plat" from 2007 and he give me full guaranteed that orna is a platinum.u won't believe it if u didn't see with your own eyes
