Almost looks like a proof.

Ditto, proof

The P in pluribus looks kind of messed up. Other than that...WOW.

Not a proof, D mintmark, Denver did not make proof coins. 1957 Proof would be a Philadelphia minted coin.

We actually pulled it out of a coin machine at our local gas n go!

Although circulated, the coin has MS details and if graded, it might actually get an MS-62 Grade. However, it would be a waste of money to have the coin certified, graded and holdered as it does not have a lot of value due to the high number of the 1957-D Cents minted.

When I was a collector, we called those Seed Cents. You spend them and hope a kid finds it and starts to collect.
