Great points Coop!

Often on ebay or in adds people say things like "this coin will grade proof" or "in proof condition" but proof is not a condition or a grade it's a method of manufacture. A proof can be any grade from damaged brown roadkill to MS70 RED DCAM.

Here's an example of a product that starts out saying how low the mintage is on the mints issue but they're selling a non coin item then saying it's 1 oz but who cares it's only plated bronze and to rub salt in the wound of the buyer it comes with a cert of authenticity that says "this is an authentic non authentic thing" then describing it's condition saying it's in "proof" condition... ha ha ha Wink

Darrell, I have news for you, and you aren't going to be very happy. The "almost dotted line that runs from the upper center, down to the left, and on around the lower area is a flat area, thus an MD. There are no notches visible inverted zoom, or normal. Sorry.
