Looks like a regular business strike.

Yea doesn't look like a proof. Just a regular business strike.

I’m confused.
So is the OP.
Great transactions with oih82w8, JasonGaming, Moose1913.
wow, no copper clad? strike on silver planchet?
It is there, just not obvious.
That's the whole point, my friend.
Time to get serious here..............Anybody have a pet that needs a name?
We have a troll that needs a name.

No cameo effect. No mirrored fields. No frosty devices.
somehow ... somehow I think op knows the answers to all their questions ...
Any fingerprint experts in the house? We may have our man!🔎
If you found it in change, it's an almost certainty that it isn't a No S proof. In order to reach circulation, somebody would have to have been lucky enough to receive one of the handful of the 2.8 million sets with a no S dime, break it open, then spend the coins.
Do you think that's what happened to your dime, or do you think it could be one of the 585 million 1975 business strike dimes that were minted in Philadelphia with no mintmark and released into circulation?

if you're reading those "Get rich from picket change" web sites, Stop! The rarely give you all the information.
Unreal 😝
Have you weighed the dime or checked specific gravity? Had it checked with a meal analyzer? Unlikely that you have a proof dime, but those are steps you will need to take to confirm or negate your thoughts. Cheers, RickO
If you have the time to start numerous threads and post repeatedly, you have time to read about and view pictures of Proof coins, to see how they differ from non-Proofs.

the below is a 1975 no S proof Dime
The 1975 No S can only be found on a proof coin.
MS or uncirculated coins don't count.

What's a proof coin?
A newly minted proof coin is made that causes a difference in appearance and qualifies it as a "proof". To understand this, let's look at how coins are made. Coins are produced when two dies strike a blank piece of metal with tremendous force. One die is engraved with the front (obverse) design for the coin. The other die has the back (reverse) coin design on it.
A proof coin is made with a specially polished and treated die!
By treating the die in a special way, the coins it produces have a different appearance. Modern technology allows the high points on the coin design to be acid treated (on the die). The background (field) design of the coin die is polished, resulting in a mirror-like look on the coin it strikes. This gives the finished coin a frosted look (frosting) on the raise parts of the design, with a mirror like finish on the background. This contrasting finish is often called "cameo". (See picture above.) On some older coins a cameo appearance is quite rare. The attribute "CAM", when added to a coin's description, means cameo appearance. "DCAM" means deep cameo, and indicates the cameo appearance is strong and easy to observe.
Proof coins are struck twice, or more!
Not only are proofs made using specially treated dies, each coin is struck two or more times by the coin die. By striking it more than once the metal is forced into all the crevices of the die, thereby giving a very fine detail to the image on the coin. This fine detail does not appear on some non-proof coins.
As I ponder the motivations for this post, I come to the conclusion that it simply cannot be a quest for knowledge because the OP clearly knows about a 1975 no S proof dime, but is completely clueless about the probability of finding one in circulation by a complete novice.
I knew it would happen.
Nice ...

Willful ignorance?
Would you buy that coin, with your money, as a 1975 no S proof??
The question is rhetorical, unless it isn't.
Collector, occasional seller
We all want to see you learn SonnyCher, but please don't pull every coin you receive out of
your pocket and think it is an ultra rarity or a mint error if it has a contact mark on it.
You will learn nothing that way and only irritate everyone with your unwillingness to learn.
Take a little break...even one day... and look at the countless examples of coins posted
here and on other coin sites and try to absorb some of what you see. You can learn a lot
fast or be like most of us here, willing to listen and learn from those that know more than us.

Everbody just ignore this fool. All he or she wants is to get a response out of all you.
Without any responses it will go away perhaps.
I concur.
Sadly, I agree.
We know they are normal coins, OP knows they are normal coins, and they know that we know.
Now where is that fishing lure photo that makes an appearance in cases like this?
Does don't feed the trolls count here?
In another thread you posted something then later said you were joking.
you also have information above to differentiate a proof no s dime from a business strike.
you have the information. we cannot operate you to make you read and see the differences. it is up to you to decide what you have.

you admit you knew the coin posted was not what you were asking about.

you mean taunting like this?
I think that the OP should send the coin to PCGS for verification and grading.
I knew it would happen.
this is a question, not taunting
you ask if something is such and such.
the reply is not a good coin, spend it.
that is your answer.
also, on two different threads you have been given detailed explanations and have shown not to have utilized the information. further, one of the two threads you said you knew it wasn't such and such and was just joking.
take the "spend it" replies as they are answering the basic question.
Agree and it would seem they would be very happy if they could take even 1 member with them when the hammer falls.
hi everyone - free yourselves from this nonsense, as it seems mods won't boot this fool
click on their name, click on 👤🔻, click ignore - poof - nonsense stops
Thank you and done.

I think he's posting on the wrong thread. It should be under the " THIS THREAD NEEDS A LITTLE HUMOR " thread.
Yes, we've seen that before.
