Proof coins are struck from specially prepared mirror-finish dies, and a frosted design. The coin blanks are also polished before striking. Each coin is then individually inspected to ensure it is entirely without blemish.

Krause Error
Although we recommend and use the excellent range of Krause publications, including their Standard Catalogue of World Coins, in such an ambitious publishing project, there are almost certain to be errors, we find errors and omissions almost every week. This is not intended as negative criticism of Krause, simply a fact of life. With 17th, 18th, 19th, and 20th / 21st century volumes, plus a World Gold Coins volume, totalling over 7,200 pages.
In the 2005 Krause Standard Catalogue of World Coins, on page 925, there is an error in the listings of these coins, KM#1006a cites both 1999 and 2000 silver proof issues with no-gold plating. This is incorrect, whereas the information shown on our web pages is correct.

We can also supply the Gold Version.
