Looks like a business strike, not a proof. No squared rims and doesn't have the light frosting, cameo, or sharper devices a proof coin has.

I have to maybe disagree this Roll Along with the other roll I got there are no new pennies in it and they're all like 84s 90s and early 2000. The other roll has errors.

 with Tanman2001. The coins in your photos look like business strikes.

Nope. When you see the business strike coins next to a proof, then you can really see the differences:    Note the Obverse and reverse proof coins. Can you see the cameo on the reverses?

I really thought I knew the difference between business strike and proof I'm also curious as to why it had so many of these 90s that would really clean

 with coop. Side by side you'd be able to see a difference. If you don't believe us, take them into a local coin shop and let them see your coins. Now, most of what you showed us look like nice coins, which we are seeing more and more of when coin collections get turned into the banks for face value (usually because heirs of a collector liquidate without realising any numismatic value)  to CCF!

They are business strikes. Just so you know,proof is not a condition or grade, it is a different process in minting.Different dies and different blanks and at least two strikes with more tonnage are used on proof coins. John1
