Ok, I have a William and Mary farthing, proof in silver (!) (1694). It is in F condition, and does not look like a proof. I know it is a proof...
True to some extent, but if you look at an Athenian tetradrachm, they rarely have more than one "test mark" because the previous test mark...

Not SGS (star grading service), which is very dodgy but the more reliable SEGS. And he is right, you just cannot break their slabs...
