I haven't ever compared them to the '04 or '05 coins so I can't say. But I have compared them to the other dates - I never noticed any particular...
I think that '55 Frankie is an impaired Proof.
It's a crap shoot - some drop in value, some do not.
Sorry pab - but without a pic there's not much help we can offer. :(
Proof ?? I can only wish. No there's no proof - there are only the reports you can read posted by numerous collectors & dealers who submit to them...

Most will tell you there is no "proper" method for cleaning coins. The only time a coin should be cleaned, IMO, is when whatever is on the coin...
Need to see the other side to grade the coin - but I don't believe it is unc in any case.
