The reverse gives the appearance of a lower grade coin, but the details missing on some of the leaves is typical for this reverse die, even in higher grades.


The look plainly says "strike/die issue" rather than wear to an informed collector - the faded parts are too irregularly-placed to be regular wear. I think I'm in the same ballpark as johnny54321 on grade.

As regards rarity, this: Of the three Cohens for the year, Heritage has offered less than half the number of C-1's as it has either of the other two, in auctions with the attribution listed.

I am at AU-55. Minimal wear with weakness due to strike. Color appears good.
