[edit] Systemic bias

Notice: this article reads like the world has only one country. --Smithfarm 15:02, 20 April 2006 (UTC)

No systematic bias exists here; those with information about a particular subject have shared their knowledge, and any from other countries are free to do the same. Unless those with information about poof coinage in other countries come forward, it will be difficult to obtain that information (if proof coins are even produced in other countries) Nicholas SL Smithchatter 04:05, 4 May 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Photo of "proof" quarter is bogus

The photo of the reverse of a Washington quarter (click on 01/02/07 photo of Lincoln cent, then on "proof" in text--sorry, I'm new here and not at all savvy about how to do this post) is NOT the photo of a proof coin. I believe it is a photo of a badly worn quarter either plated or dipped in mercury. Compare the feather detail to a fresh 68.53.113.45 08:44, 2 January 2007 (UTC)quarter from your pocket.
