I did find this today, a 2010S proof nickel in very good condition. I had a hard time getting good pictures because of reflection/glare so they aren't the best.

Does anybody know the production numbers on these?

Those are actually very good pictures. I wish I could take pics of proofs like that. I'm not sure about production #'s, but great Jefferson!

That's quite a quick turnaround from Proof set to circulation, nice find.

Does it look like the coin is almost off-center?

Actually, it looks misaligned on both sides.

Or is that within mint tolerance?

Or is it the angle of the pics?

Yeah, my last proof find was a 1991. That one was scratched quite a bit too. This one is almost as good as what the mint sent me.

I agree, it does look off-center.

@Scooby Due - It's just the angle of the picture.

A side note - "very good condition" is actually pretty bad. Heavy wear with only major details remaining.

Haha.. I meant very good condition as a circulated proof, not a grade. ;)

Awesome find. I love finding proofs.
I thought it looked off center too but it seems to be in a folder or something that is covering the edge.

I don't know the mintage but it has been around 2 million for the clad sets and 750 thousand for the silver set
for about the last decade and beyond. Very rough estimate.
