Potbellypub Pillar of the Community United States 900 Posts	Posted 03/27/2017 10:34 pm I found this 1964 proof nickel in a coin roll. Looks like it's not hurt too bad but the steps are worn so it's been out there a while . That's cool because I'm a 1964 model as well but I'm a business strike far from a proof. Lol I muted the light and retook the photos. Edited by Potbellypub 03/27/2017 11:05 pm Report this Post to the Staff

spru Bedrock of the Community United States 12477 Posts	Posted 03/28/2017 12:56 am Yep, I believe it's a nice looking business strike and not a Proof. Still a nice find for a '64!

Potbellypub Pillar of the Community United States 900 Posts	Posted 03/28/2017 07:31 am Thanks mark1959,westernsky and spruette, now I know what to look for on a proof I didn't realize the edges were more square in a proof . I would say this layed around in someone's change jug for years it's mirror like in hand especially on the reverse or as mark said may have been polished. Thanks for the replies and info!

biokemist6 Bedrock of the Community United States 12437 Posts	Posted 03/28/2017 3:43 pm A well-circulated 1964 proof nickel would still have some decent step detail, business strikes almost always had mushy indistinct steps. Report this Post to the Staff
