Not all proofs are created equal, many of the early quarters had kinda mushy strikes.

PR-64, the obverse has a green tint to it in the pics is that an anomoly or is it on the coin?

Yes, it is a proof because it has the Type B reverse(there are no known business strike Type Bs for 1954). The rims are also indicative of a proof strike. Unfortunately, it has a significant amount of hazing
