If coherent states describe the disoriented chiral condensates (DCC`s), many states of different chiral orientations should equally contribute to a given hadronic process. However, in the classical field description, we ignore the interference between the different DCC amplitudes. It results in a disregard of isospin invariance. We examine quantitatively how good this approximation is for the DCC`s of a typical size.
