Found an unopened proof set from 2000, and I've found 4 pretty exciting coins. The dollar is misaligned and has a step protruding into the face from the edge, and on the other side I thing there is minor double stamping:

[u] That is called a fin on the rim area. The die may have been tilted a bit and part of the metal moved around the die on that area of the rim creating the fin. Nice find. Most of the time they are already flattened.

What you think this puppy is worth like that? It has been out of the case once, and that was so I could take these pictures and put it back.

Fins on proof coins aren't all that uncommon due to the high pressure of the striking.
