The term proof refers to the method of manufacture, not the condition
of the coin. Regular production coins in mint state have coruscating,
frosty luster, soft details and minor imperfections. Proof coins can
usually be distinguished by their sharpness of detail, high-wire edge
and extremely brilliant, mirror-like surface. A proof is a specimen
striking of coinage for presentation, souvenir, exhibition or
numismatic purposes.
