Well isn't *that* just about the strangest thing...

The thing is, once it makes it into circulation, you can't call it a proof anymore. I realize they only made these in proof issues, but..... now it isn't.

Still a very cool and unusual find!

It is still considered a proof coin, but a dealer would call it an 'impaired proof'

Great find bud! I've got about a dozen of them that I have found in rolls.
