at4user New Member United States 35 Posts	Posted 12/29/2010 11:07 am I'm 90% sure that this is a proof of the Utah State Quarter. The camera doesn't capture this, but in hand this thing is like looking in a mirror. I've never seen a proof in circulation before (or just never noticed) so thats why I was confused. Any insight from you guys? Report this Post to the Staff

biokemist6 Bedrock of the Community United States 12437 Posts	Posted 12/29/2010 3:01 pm Definitely not a proof coin, just a normal CuNi clad business strike. Also, Denver does not mint proofs except for the occasional commemorative. Report this Post to the Staff

littleboy Pillar of the Community United States 764 Posts	Posted 12/29/2010 3:46 pm Judging by the blemishes on the coin and the luster you describe, I think it is cleaned with some kind of polish or maybe just ran through a washing machine. Report this Post to the Staff

coppertop5150 Pillar of the Community United States 958 Posts	Posted 12/30/2010 12:29 am I just found a proof arizona in pocket change last week , its on another thread " found in circulation" a few days ago. They all have " S " for the mint mark. I deal with change everyday in my bussiness. I have seen a few State Quarters that are " proof like " very shiney back grounds but the cameo effect is not present high fields cameo is frosted look that contrast the mirror look making the images appear to pop off the coin Report this Post to the Staff
