I thought so too!

 

Where did the idea that your coin is rare come from?

 

I agree.

 

I'd rather be in a hole than in the air...

 

I'd rather have a bottle in front of me than a frontal lobotomy

 

Everyone on this site has been sucked into a drop dead gorgeous coin that we paid to much for… Don’t give it a second thought. It’s the price of admission.

 

USE NUMISMEDIA, PRICES ARE MORE REALISTIC (LOWER) THIS IS WHAT I USE TO BUY AND SELL WITH

 

For $20 a month…

 

IMHO this is an impaired proof. Lighting is definitely making it difficult to know for sure. There appear to be some circulation marks.

The devices/letters of EPU being well defined and "thin" are the best indicators for me.

EDIT: I forgot to add that there also appears to be some frosting on the letters on the reverse.

Thank you for this link. I was aware of the two re-engraved dies for 1953 but not this one for 1950.

There is a second proof variety DDR-001 but this coin doesn't exhibit any Class 6 thickness on the reverse devices that I can see.
