Ouch. Harshly cleaned. It's not a proof, it's just that the hairline scratches that are causing a false luster. Someone used a wire brush or steel wool on the coin. It might be AU, but it's only a "details" grade because of the cleaning.

My local coin dealer said was cleaned but felt was a proof coin—how do you differentiate proof from non proof for this coin—the coin looks great to naked or minimal magnified eye but crappy when took pics—thanks

I cant tell if its a proof but the coins value is fairly low due to the harsh cleaning.

Not a proof. Strike quality and rims prove that it isn't a proof.
