Hi all,

I just picked up this very nice looking 1972 Bahamas 5 cent coin, not even realizing that 1971-1973 coins were only found in non-circulating sets. However, I don't know how to tell if I have a regular 1972FM or a proof. Any ideas on IDing? It was in a junk bin at a local coin shop so it's definitely not still in pristine condition.

Looks like an impaired proof. I see the mirror background and frosted devices.

Rim helps determine impaired proof.
