Only 3 varieties on the NGC site, and it doesn't seem to match any of them.

Isn't there supposed to be a "dot" between the reverse words "ONE" & "CENT"? Or maybe just worn off. The date looks a little "fat" but may also be wear.

Looks like a C-1 to me. my guess is the dot is worn off.

Ok, thanks, yeah, it does look like a C-1. I thought the dot should be visible too, but maybe not. Color was odd too.

Half Cents are not my area, but it looks like the missing dot on the reverse has found its way to the bust on the obverse.

It sold for $74.05

Saw that too, which added to my concern.
