Cool, I've only found one before, a 2011 S penny. Definitely exciting.

Happens a lot due to kids robbing their family coin collection, criminals robbing homes, robbing coin stores, etc.

You also see the occasional base metal NCLT and proof coins in Australia as well. Generally, with the base metal versions, if they have been impaired by circulation, they are not worth much more than the business strike coins.

I take them from circulation anyway because they are unusual, and cost me face value only. I have never seen silver proof NCLT's in circulation.

The bottom of the last page of my Dansco 7146 features four impaired Proof Quarters I received in change.

Nice find.

I have found a few proof cents and nickels and quite few proof halves roll searching but have never got one back in change.

Last week I found a proof Millard Fillmore prez golden dollar at the bank where I work as a teller. I've also gotten a '73-S proof Eisenhower (clad) the same way.

The proof coins that you get in change are the ones that you remember years later. Definitely worth keeping, even if impaired.
