Conspicuous in poverty (5)

I believe the answer is:

overt

'conspicuous' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'in poverty' is the wordplay.
'in' indicates a hidden word.
'OVERT' is hidden in the letters of 'poverty'.

(Other definitions for overt that I've seen before include "not disguised" , "____ is able to be seen" , "Conspicuous" , "Open and undisguised" , "Not locked away" .)
