How can you tell if they're silver proof coins?

How can you tell if they're silver proof coins?

all new silver coins will have S mint mark..to my knowlege S mint mark is only used for mint/proof sets...

Also the proof coins have a cameo look to them where the bust (head) and reverse are frosted looking.

Very nice discovery! I too have nabbed so many silver coins and oldies out of the cash drawer at work. The other girls think I'm crazy when I find one! They are just kids though.....and boyfriends are the only thing on their minds!

That is one thing I miss about working at the cash register. I have found many neat finds. My last find was four Kennedy proofs. I still want to know who would spend a proof. Someone unknowledgeable of coins, it would have to be.

Thanks folks! Proofs are beautiful coins compared to regular clad.

somebodys' dad is gonna be really mad the next time he looks at his mint sets.
