Not a proof.

I dont do cents. I don't collect them. I don't know about them.

But doesn't "S" mintmark mean that it is a proof?

From 1968-1974 there were business strike Lincoln cents made in San Francisco. Your looks like a business strike that is in good shape.

I agree. If it were a proof it would still be like a mirror. Sweet penny though. Itd be in my coin book as my nicest 71-s if it were mine nice.
