Looks harshly cleaned to me, particularly on the reverse.  Never buy raw coins of any value.  The insurance of buying already graded coins is worth more than the potential savings you get buying raw.

I would not risk buying it raw at any price personally but maybe you will get lucky.  It's hard to sell coins that are returned as cleaned or otherwise damaged from a grading service.  You can buy an AU58 NGC graded coin (no details) for $425 on Ebay right now for example.  If it were a real proof worth >$3000, it would already be graded.  I know there are treasures to be found out there not yet graded, but I would be very suspect.
