Looks good to me. The problem people are having with the neck is because they are comparing the OP coin which is an S-3 with an S-2.
Exactly.....I have my own methods of attributing these early cents, but I totally agree with Conder.....the coin looks good (authenticity wise) ...... the obverse is a perfect match for obverse die #3 and the reverse die is a lock for reverse die 'C'......The OP's coin is Sheldon variety S-3.
