<p>[QUOTE=&quot;jaceravone, post: 502983, member: 9474&quot;]I am not saying that this coin wont be struck multiple times, but it is not the number of strikes that determine whether it is proof or uncirculated, but rather how the die is made or polished that determines whether or not a coin is going to be a proof or uncirculated.&nbsp; </p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Matter of fact, if you saw the Discovery Channel&#039;s show on how coins are made, most if not all &quot;collector&quot; grade coins were stamped more than once.&nbsp; Proofs, were stamped three times or more.&nbsp; I don&#039;t remember the exact numbers since it has been a while since I watched the show, but you get the idea.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>If I am wrong someone please tell me. </p><p>&nbsp; </p><p><a href="http://www.usmint.gov/KIDS/campcoin/coinFinishes.cfm" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.usmint.gov/KIDS/campcoin/coinFinishes.cfm" rel="nofollow">http://www.usmint.gov/KIDS/campcoin/coinFinishes.cfm</a>[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
