<p>[QUOTE=&quot;alurid, post: 8126848, member: 81991&quot;]I would say that coin is proof-like from what little bit of the original surface I can see. This designation seem to be fairly common with Canadian coins. Proof-like coins are stuck with dies made for circulating coins.&nbsp; The one you posted looks like it did circulate a bit and is no longer an MS coin. I don&#039;t think term &#039;proof-like&#039; is a designation of any type of grade. It is more a designation of die stage.</p><p>I have heard it used for Morgan dollars, but not many other US coins. </p><p><br /></p><p>The photos do deceptively hide all that surface damage. Note how long the shadow of the coins are. It may help with a future purchase.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
