I found a 1911 from a CWR that was in about the same condition as that. It turned out to be a proof! It's a million in 1 chance, but you should check it for proof diagnostics anyway.

I'm puzzled by Kefiroth describing his 1911 LWC as a "proof" coin. I could be mistaken, but to my knowledge the first proof coins in that series were not struck until 1936. Likewise, the first "mint" sets weren't made until 1947. If I'm wrong, would someone please enlighten me?
