What does Uncirculated and Proof mean when referring to coins?
An "Uncirculated" coin is exactly that. It has never been in circulation and is in mint condition, and in the packaging it was sold in. A "Proof" coin is similar to an "Uncirculated" coin in that it has never been in circulation, but they are made on specially polished dies so that they have a very lustrous and shiny appearance. Proof coins might also be made from a metal other than what the normal coin might be made from, such as gold or silver. Proof coins usually cost a lot more to buy irrespective of what they are made from.
