The official 10-coin United States Mint Proof Set for 2001. The set includes all five proof quarters issued under the 50 State Quarters Program for 2001, plus the proof Lincoln cent, Jefferson nickel, Roosevelt dime, Kennedy half-dollar and Golden Dollar.

Each of these five new proof quarters celebrate the unique heritage of its state - New York's "Gateway to Freedom", North Carolina's "First Flight", Rhode Island's coastline, Vermont's maple trees and Kentucky's "Federal Hill". Few coins today have the degree of artistry and detail that is so beautifully revealed in a proof coin.

United States Mint Proof coins are extraordinarily brilliant with sharp relief and a mirror-like surface. Their frosted, sculpted foregrounds give them a special "cameo" effect, created by the exacting proofing process. Proof blanks are specially treated, polished, and cleaned to ensure high-quality strikes. The blanks are then fed into presses fitted with hand-polished dies and struck at least twice to ensure sharp, high relief. The coins are then packaged in presentation cases to showcase and preserve their exceptional finish. The United States Mint Proof coins are truly the "Crown Jewels" of coinage.

Packaging: Two hard plastic cases inserted into specially printed sleeves and accompanied by a Certificate of Authenticity.
