If it is diffuse and large as images suggest, I would even miss brighter comets as my skies are not perfect. The 11-12 mag is for up to 10' aperture, that's huge! My eyes are not a sensitive CCD chip...

I have it indeed on my list for tomorrow morning. According to Michael Jäger and others it is 11 mag. But they measured a large faint coma. If I do not detect the large coma it might appear fainter for me. It is definitely the least certain of the six.
