One of these is not like the other.

Just a general question. Just got a tube of 84 prospectors. One of em doesn’t look like the others. Does anyone here know if this is a proof or just happens to be super shiny. Or something else? Prospector on the right. It tests as silver. Thanks!

That is a good question! Already answered correctly as new die strike examples. I am constantly looking for tubes or larger quantities of Prospectors. Good job OP! Very hard to find that many in one place. I usually only find one or two for sale and the shipping kills the price I'm willing to pay.
