Jdford Valued Member United States 362 Posts	Posted 01/11/2022 7:08 pm It was advertised as a proof for like 2 dollars. No proofs were made then from Philadelphia that I could find. I bought it just to look at it because of the red tone. What do you think? Even though it is shiny a bit, but doesn't look proof to me. Report this Post to the Staff

ijn1944 Bedrock of the Community United States 19229 Posts	Posted 01/11/2022 9:23 pm Yes, not a proof. Nice coin, but falls around AU58--given the photos posted. Report this Post to the Staff

T-BOP Rest in Peace United States 18456 Posts	Posted 01/12/2022 11:56 am I hate agreeing with everyone , I rather come up with something on my own but in this case your coin is not a proof and maybe I'll bring it down a notch to AU-62 . Report this Post to the Staff
