Proof coins are struck on specially prepared and polished dies and are hand finished after striking to give the coin a mirror like finish.
A Proof coin to purchase brand new from the Mint, would cost significantly more than its face value, simply because it takes more time and effort to produce them.
On rare occasions, an uncirculated coin may be worth more than the equivalent Proof coin because the uncirculated coin is rarer or more sought after by collectors than the equivalent Proof coin.

How much is the 1976 Canadian olympic gold proof 100 dollar coin worth?
Canada issued 2 $100 Olympic Commemorative coins that year. One is a 1/4 ounce 14k gold coin but it is an UNC coin - not a PROOF. The other coin (the one this person has asked about here) is a PROOF condition 1/2 oz. coin which is worth approximately $550-$575 as of Feb 27, 2010. You must be careful when purchasing these coins. The coin itself does not specify the gold content or whether it is a PROOF or UNC coin. Both coins are very shiny and could be mistaken as PROOF coins. The only clear visible difference in the coins are their respective colors. The 14k 1/4 ounce coin is much lighter in color than the darker 22k 1/2 ounce coin. The other difference is the diameter of the coin. The 22k 1/2 coin is 25mm in diameter and is actually smaller than the cheaper UNC coin (27mm). Of course the 1/2 oz. coin is heavier as well. Be careful buying these coins and be sure you know what you are buying. There are people out there tryng to pass off the 1/4 oz. coin as the 1/2 oz. coin.
