This is a proof coin, it's obvious from the photos. Proofs and business strikes look totally different from one another.
When proof dies get near the end of their life cycle, they start to show flow lines. It is very common.
This coin has no cameo, and has a little haze here and there. In fact, it is a very typical 1961 proof cent as I see at shows for sale between $1 and $5 all the time. I personally wouldn't spend over a $5 bill on it...but that's just me.
