A proof coin is a coin that is made to test the mint and ensure that the coin is of proper quality before mass production. Generally, a proof is not circulated, but they are sometimes sold to collectors.
A Proof coin is a particular issue of a coin not a grade of condition.
The only legal example of this coin sold for $7,590,020 in July of 2002. The coin is NOT real. It's a copy that has no collectible value.
Buy a copy of any coin magazine or search the web, most big dealers have them in stock but expect to pay about $4.00 or more per roll at this time.

A proof coin is not mass produced. It is individually pressed using polished dies.
"Proof" means that the coin is in very good condition, and it could be worth $100-300, depending on who you sell it to. However, if it is a copy, you may as well toss it. The coin should say "copy" on it somewhere. If not, I would still check by looking up the weight of a real Morgan dollar and then weighing yours. Only a VERY good imitation can come close to the right weight.
A proof coin has a special shiny finish on it and it is made to be sold to collectors, and not used as money.
No, a genuine Continental currency coin would not have the word "copy" on it. If a coin has "copy" marked on it, it is likely a replica or counterfeit coin. Authentic Continental currency coins were issued during the American Revolution and did not include such markings.
The proof copy coins sell for any where from $5 to $15. It's really a matter of finding a willing buyer who is looking to pay for one. Someone who wants one to display will likely pay a lot more than someone who just thinks it's neat.
Because it's a copy.
