TNG Bedrock of the Community United States 10284 Posts	Posted 08/24/2010 10:02 pm No it is not a proof, I am really sure of that, it is most likely a medium strike from a worn die and in AU58 condition. Pretty nice but fairly common pre 1960 nickel. It would be a keeper of mine if I found it. Report this Post to the Staff
scotty11 Pillar of the Community United States 1042 Posts	Posted 08/24/2010 10:06 pm Thanks wheezy. This one threw me off a bit because of it's luster, and lack of bag marks. I'm used to finding pre-60's stuff that's well worn and dull. Report this Post to the Staff

copper nickel daddy Pillar of the Community United States 2224 Posts	Posted 08/25/2010 12:17 am I agree with Wheezy. If a proof the steps would be very clear with no soft spots on them. Still very nice find! Report this Post to the Staff
fioti Pillar of the Community United States 4212 Posts	Posted 08/25/2010 3:44 pm Nice pull. I need to know what a roll goes for, as other dates & mm. With 1000+ rolls; I don't know where to start. Report this Post to the Staff
