    No they are not the 1975 S Proof Dime that was minted without the S mint mark. They were specially prepared and struck and the die that created them had the S mint mark left off of it. If you find one that looks like the S mint 1975 Proof Coin in the above post but is missing the S mint mark then you may have one. It's very unlikely as very few were minted.

    Good luck with your search. You might want to buy a copy of the Red Book, the handbook on coins, but you can pick one up pretty cheaply from a flea marker or used book store so you don't have to get the most current edition. It will have a lot of information on coins like this and other interesting things that might show up in your change.

    This is a picture of a 1975 proof dime. No offense intended, but what made you think your coins were proof vs. business strike? I'd sincerely like to know the thought process there. It might help others to understand where the disconnect is.

    He's hoping it's one of the rare San Francisco proof strikes where the mintmark was left off the die as an error.

    This isn't a proof strike.
