Edges do not match that of a proof. And for a proof coin to were enough to lose all it's mirror surfaces it would probably grade VF or lower.
I do believe there is more than one.
Most of them are in the vaults, there is a slow draw down of maybe 6 million coins a month. At that rate they have about a 27 year supply.

Says they BOTH weigh 2.5 grams, but shows 5 different dates, 4 or which are copper plated zinc and should weight 2.5 grams and a 78 D which should...
Color test is NOT diagnostic, nor is the ping test, nor is weight or specific gravity. Even an XRF test isn't completely diagnostic but it is the...
Some people can do a darn good job of it. And some people actually have rolling machines that will give you nice tight rolled and crimped ends
If I recall correctly IIRC = If I Recall Correctly
What good is seeing the other end of the roll going to do? It still doesn't tell you anything about what is inside the roll. We've even seen...
The webbing today is typically chopped up for ease of handling, but yes it can be acquired legally. The GSA sells the scrap metal as government...
