Krause has this listed as KM#437 but only in proof.
Pretty sure there is a normal circulation issue cause I have one
typo?

Krause isn't right all the time - reckon it's one of their errors again.

G'day, according to Renniks -
the 2000RV 50-cent mintage was 5,145,000;
compared to the 2000 Millenium 16,630,000.
There was also a silver proof RV: only 18,993 of them.

Yep, it's an error in Krause, that goes back at least to the 2006 edition. KM# 437, cupronickel, should come in Proof and circulation versions (and difficult to find in genuine Unc, because it wasn't included in the 2000 mint set). KM# 437a is the silver version, proof only.

not the colour but the design of it looks like a proof to me

Proof coins could have any design Spedward. Typically decimal proof coins have frosted high points and mirror fields. Specimens have the opposite - polished high points and frosted fields, with the design being the same.

 Well it's not a proof. All I wanted to know was about the possibility of a Krause error. I'm away from my collection at the moment so I can't post a pic. But if you REALLY want me to I can |
