I'll send that know. It's not a proof coin but is a business strike.

Given the photos posted, I'm not seeing a proof. What are you seeing that indicates it may be?

Looks like a regular Philly-mint business strike to me.

Appears to be a typical business strike, I see no evidence of this being o proof

Your coin is a Philadelphia mint business strike and is no way a proof coin.

The proof has the shiny fields, double struck coins bring out the strong details.

it's a business strike, but I already know what you mean, what makes you think it's a proof, it's a solid strike with a squared rim.

My "opinions" and people will disagree....
I've found coins like this from various years roll hunting, my first guess is, came from a mint set and released to the wild.
or guess #2, it was struck in San Francisco or West Point to help out with production, not a proof strike, but not done at Philly on the rapid machines production presses.
