Well there is one that is a proof that is from Philadelphia since 1980 that has a 'P' mintmark on it.
All pre 1965 proof coins do not have a 'P' mintmark that were proof nickels. (The War years did have P Mintmarks on them as mentioned above, but they were not proofs. But they were business strike nickels. (Type Two Nickels) 1909-1916 had the matte proof coins. No more until 1936 when they started the proof sets back up again. 1936-1942 1950-1964. After that most of the Proof coins were made in San Francisco. The one I mentioned from Philly and the others from West Point.
Satin finish on some coins as well:
Cents:
The 1965-1967 SMS were also in all denominations, but there were no mintmarks on these.
2005-2008 Plain and Denver:

Quote:quote from PCGS on the Cents: Jaime Hernandez:
From 2005-2012 the Mint produced Special Satin Finish Mint Sets. Each Mint Set contained an example of every circulating coin in a specially struck burnished planchet. For the
Lincoln Cent this was also the last year in which the Mint used the
Memorial cent design.
Most 2008-D Satin Finish Lincoln cents were struck very well, with many examples grading MS67 and higher. Coins in MS68 are a bit difficult to find but yet, still available. In MS69, they become more difficult with possibly a few hundred examples that grade MS69.
Nickels:
The 1965-1967 SMS were also in all denominations, but there were no mintmarks on these.
SMS 1997-P:

But note the strike on this coin. They are EDS examples in MS-69 and MS-70 high grades.
Your coin is not one of these. Note the die flow lines on your coin. These don't have that.
Also on the 2005- 2010 P and D. There were Satin Nickels:
