ijn1944 Bedrock of the Community United States 11267 Posts	Posted 08/05/2022 2:04 pm I'm not convinced the coin isn't a proof. Some images appear to show a rather 'squared off' rim edge. Can't be 100% sure. Would love to see the coin in-hand. Report this Post to the Staff

Believe7 Pillar of the Community United States 677 Posts	Posted 08/05/2022 2:12 pm Thanks to all of you. I was unable to capture the glossy fields in the background. In real time, its a different penny from a regular business. I will have to take it somewhere. Thanks again, love you. Report this Post to the Staff
silviosi Pillar of the Community Canada 4736 Posts	Posted 08/05/2022 2:42 pm @Believe: Your coin is not proof. Now understand one thing. Do not compare 1971 with 2022. Two different kind of coins. Your coin if have high glossy hope qualify for PL. Is more valuable then any proof. Some in SF was strike in that time with the recycle proof dies. I hope for you to have the PL which was strike with 2 recycle proof dies. Or better an BS on proof planchet. Good Luck, come back to tell what was. Report this Post to the Staff
Believe7 Pillar of the Community United States 677 Posts	Posted 08/05/2022 2:58 pm @silviosi..Thanks for the info. I will now do a full research. I happen to own several proof sets, but none for that year. Will post my findings. Thanks again. Report this Post to the Staff
Cujohn Pillar of the Community United States 3008 Posts	Posted 08/05/2022 5:01 pm not a proof. There is a lot more identifiers for a proof coin other than real shiny. Square rims, bold strike, mirror finish. Report this Post to the Staff
Believe7 Pillar of the Community United States 677 Posts	Posted 08/05/2022 8:03 pm @Cujohn..Guess I will have to send this one to PCGS, I have one more voucher with them. We'll find out for sure. Thanks again to all. Report this Post to the Staff

You can do that but I wouldn't recommend it . Whether it comes back Impaired proof or AU to UNC. either way you loose . Both would have little to no value . Tony For Butch & Jim rest in peace .

Believe7 Pillar of the Community United States 677 Posts	Posted 08/05/2022 11:57 pm @T-BOP...The coin is not as bad as it looks. Someone had sugested that maybe its a Proof-Like variety. One of the reasons why I was going to submit it....My camera cannot capture the gloss for some reason. Thanks. Report this Post to the Staff
CentSation Pillar of the Community United States 713 Posts	Posted 08/06/2022 12:04 am Quote: "Thanks again, love you." LOLOL, that is so hokey. ...and if it is a proof coin, it's worth... $0.50? Edited by CentSation 08/06/2022 12:22 am Report this Post to the Staff
