Highly suspect. Looks polished. I don't think proofs even existed at that time.

"Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you." -Luke 11:9
"Hear, O Israel: The LORD our God is one LORD: And thou shalt love the LORD thy God with all thine heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy might." -Deut. 6:4-5
"For the LORD is our judge, the LORD is our lawgiver, the LORD is our king; He will save us." -Isaiah 33:22
They had proofs in 1765, or so I would bet. I know of proof coins from the 1770's.
Unfortunately, some glitch is making eBay pages open verrrry slowly for me tonight (if at all), so
...oh, wait. There it is. Finally.
I get Civitas' pun, now.
You gotta love how this guy uses "proof" and "nearly uncirculated" interchangeably, in the same auction for that poor, starving, malnourished, "Hungry" coin.
