What do they tend to sell for? Is it high enough to justify having it slabbed and properly identified? This could easily cost $50 or more. And...
1825 C-1 R-3 does come with rotated reverse although 180 degrees may be a little extreme. It is NOT a high value coin.
I don't know what you are seeing. Everything seems to be matching up to be an 1811 C-2. Color looks a bit off, but I won't condemn it for that.
But if you can read the names of the states around the top of the Memorial you're really good. :)

Are those the ones JFK struck personally on a visit to the mint? :)

I don't know of a list of tolerances online, I get mine from the Coin World Almanac, 1990 edition pages 339 - 342. I don't know what a Jolly is...
