About this coinHistory

The 2004-S Proof was produced at San Francisco with a mintage of approximately 2.97 million pieces. The proof set continued the statehood quarter program, featuring Michigan, Florida, Texas, Iowa, and Wisconsin proofs. The Wisconsin quarter's "extra leaf" varieties generated excitement among collectors that year.

The proof cent features deep mirror fields and frosted devices. Deep cameo contrast is standard. The coin is affordably priced and widely available. Collectors note that the Memorial reverse design was now in its 46th year, and discussions about a redesign for the Lincoln cent's upcoming centennial were beginning to surface.
