I found a 1963 proof nickel while hunting. Only one I am aware of.

Yes, I found an S-mint mart quarter a few years back in a change can at work. They didn't mint S that year for general circulation so it apparently was a proof. It's stored so I can't tell you the exact year (90s).

I found a proof quarter while CRH several months ago.

I had always wondered if I would be able to tell a proof from business strike while CRH. When I finally came across one, BAM! It just stood out. There was no doubt about what it was.

Does prooflike count? Just kidding. None yet, but I have many years ahead of me to find some.

Just found another proof nickel roll hunting, bringing my total found proofs to three.

I also have a bunch of 68, 69, 70-S nickels I need to check over more closely to see if they're impaired proofs or business strikes.

I have dozens of them from roll searching, but I have never found one in my change.
