WOW!
Very nice coin image
So I figured for sure it's graded or some like images,,, is this a variety? Also top leafs on reverse are reversed? Correction leafs don't match, I mean which one reaches further, along with top berry positions.
Just my opinion
PS I really like your coin image thanks for sharing
Did they all have the center dot on the reverse? I mean is this one broken off?
Oh and the H & C of half cent looking mighty fake, correction again the whole half cent looks fake to me.
PSS I'd pass on this coin based on my said assessment even if someone said it was a variety,,, my personal opinion
@SlickCoins .... I am not an expert on these early half cents....That being said, the reverse is very, very different from the coin in the OP. Perhaps some of our experts will be along soon. Cheers, RickO

Same obverse die, different reverse dies.
@coinkat, Is it possible to get an image of the edge?

I knew it 😜 as soon as I kept thinking even if it was a variety and sure enough Cohen 2.
