Looks like business Strike to me, unless it's an impaired circulated proof. Not an expert though I have handled hundreds.

It's a business strike, no question about it.
Also, there is no "S" mintmark, which the
proofs have, unless you were hoping yours
was the next Proof Bicentennial Ike without
the "S" Mintmark.......which it's not.....sorry...

What Fred said.
Thank yall for the info
A proof even in that condition would still have square rims and reflective (and basined surfaces) in protected areas.
