Waynoah83 Pillar of the Community 586 Posts	Posted 06/14/2018 7:33 pm It's is not a proof. Proofs moatly have a mirror-like finish. You just found a 1990 penny that hasn't been in circulation much. Maybe from a collection or someone had some change stashed for a long time. Still cool to find an almost 30 year old coin that looks like it just came from the mint.
