Help me grade this 1851 Half Cent. Pictures aren't the best but this is all I have to work with. Are there issues?

My first thought was fake, but I think I can see the MPD indicative of the C-1 variety. With that said, the surfaces do mot look original. I would bid an EF details price.

1851 Cohen 1 (the only die pair, with MPD right of date); EAC VF30 sharpness netted down to F15 on the cleaning and rim damage. Reverse shows large hit on the rim at around 5:00 position. Stick it on a sunny window sill for a few years and let it retone. TPG grade: XF40 details.
