[QUOTE="Dos Mundos, post: 67812, member: 4021"]I know what a proof looks like, thank you very much, and there are different kinds of proof issues. And of course I was referring to Philadelphia strikes of 1878, even my thread title says so. :D Just can't remember where I read it(probably in a coin magazine) but the proof trade dollars of that year were not the brilliant cameo type or anything as nice looking and were placed in paper coin envelopes. Of course, all this discussion is moot if the coin turns out to be fake, and I don't want to damage it just to find out. It feels and looks like silver, it even rings like silver when dropped(if you know what I mean) I'll try to find a scale and weigh it when I have time. Thanks man :)[/QUOTE]
