I found this on ebay and it seems reasonably priced.

I just need to know if this is a proof.

My impression, no...too many flow lines in the obverse field to be a proof. A mint set probably, which many people think are proofs.

The flow lines made me unsure. I was about to make an offer on it but now I am glad I did not

This is more of what I would expect (and not a bad price)

That is NOT the coin you would receive, so do not buy based on the photo.
A quick ebay search shows several proof 63s for less than $5.

It is a proof but it is also a stock photo as mentioned.
