I agree I like the large Chi-Rho. Are these issues generally worn like flat like that on the obverse?

I had thought this one was going to have a flat obverse, but it and the other two arrived today and it actually has a decent obverse. Legend and bust are worn down but I can still see them. I will try to get in-hand photos up as soon as possible.
