None of the major grading agencies list a small date 1960 nickel. The only small date coin issued in 1960 was the cent. In addition, frosted proofs were generally not issued until the 1980s.

In any case, as of 03/2011 a 1960 proof nickel sells for anywhere from 50¢ for the lowest proof grade (60) to about $20 for a high-end coin (67)

Why are windows panes made of frosted glass?

Frosted glass is used on windows that will let in sunlight, but will stop people looking in from outside. A bathroom, or glass panels on an external door, will usually have frosted glass for privacy. Apart from frosted, other patterns can be used - small dimples, raised spots or lines, etc, can also be used.

How can you determine a proof coin?

Proof coins are specially struck using polished blanks and low-speed presses that strike a deep, detailed image. They're put in sealed packages for sale to collectors. Modern proofs have mirrorlike backgrounds and frosted ("matte") images. If your coin is dated 1968 or later, proof coins are relatively easy to identify because they all have an "S" mint mark on them. The only possible confusion would be if the coin is a cent from 1968-74 or a nickel from 1968-70, when San Francisco struck those denominations for circulation. All other S mint coins from 1968 onward are proofs only. Earlier proofs were struck at Philadelphia so they're more difficult to identify. Proof coins sometimes find their way into circulation when a set is broken open. That can happen if a set is stolen and the thief doesn't know what he has; sometimes small children will open Mommy's or Daddy's proof sets to get at the "shiny coins". Unfortunately if a proof coin has been spent, its value is significantly reduced.
