The 2001-S Proof was produced at San Francisco with a mintage of approximately 3.18 million pieces. Many proof set subscribers had placed their orders months before September 11, receiving their sets during a period of profound national mourning and uncertainty. The proof cent, sealed in its protective case, bore the year that would become shorthand for tragedy.
The coin features deep mirror fields and frosted devices. Deep cameo examples are standard for this era. The 2001-S Proof is affordable and widely available. The statehood quarter proofs included in the same set helped sustain overall demand for the proof program during a difficult year.
