yours is the "closed wreath" version (top of the wreath joined by a line). agree with VF20, nicer XF AU can be picked up relatively easily/cheaply.
these are one of those common tokens, and if you are building a collection I would suggest you invest the extra $ and get a really nice example.

a harder to come by variety for this issue is the "open wreath".

aside from the obvious lack of completely joined wreath it has another marker that can help identify lower grades. check the die crack that joins the T and U in agriculTUre.

you can find an unattributed open wreath if you are patient, otherwise expect to pay 5-10x more than the common closed (more as the grades increase).
