Here are more pics that were asked for, I dont have the best digiscope and it still dont show the true luster to the coin, I'm going on its markers which it does have them all, the die scratches by lincolns nose, the die scratch under Liberty and the die chip to the east of the M in UNUM. Other than that this is all I can offer for now. Just dont bash me or call me an idiot or nothin lol. THanks for any advice!

Very old proofs are a total enigma to me and it seems like you have a pretty good handle on what to look for, like die markers and such.
Good luck and I hope it is.

As you know you'll probably need to invest about $20 or so to find out for sure. One of the few good reasons to send a coin to be graded IMHO.

I'm not a matte proof expert, but first glance I agree with Thad-probably not a proof-maybe have a dealer examine before having it certified as the business strikes for this year were saved in quantity as a first year of issue and not real valuable unless it is a proof-is that a fingerprint on Mr. Lincolns head?
