<p>[QUOTE="JJK78, post: 1481108, member: 19207"]Thanks Dutchman, I'll post my own pictures when I recieve the coin and hopefully we will be able to tell for sure then. It certainly wouldn't ruin my day if it is a proof, although I was hoping it was a business strike... well I should say that by the look of it, it didn't even occur to me that it could have been a proof at first~ After looking over and over at the pictures it looks like the outer edge has a mirror look to it, but not the fields. Thats when I started looking at other coins and noticed that alot of the proof coins look nothing like more modern proof coins... Hrm~</p><p><br /></p><p>Well probably another lesson learned the hard way...
