United States Mint
uncirculated coins are struck on special presses using greater force than
circulating coins, producing a sharp, intricately detailed image, and feature
the satin finish introduced in 2005. The coins are sealed in a blister and
displayed in a folder. One folder contains coins bearing the “P” mint mark and
the other contains coins bearing the “D” mint mark.
We also need to change HTML code to reflect

Territories Quarters copper-nickel clad Proof Set (Q09)
Each 2009 quarter is made of copper nickel
clad alloy, like coins minted for circulation. However, the coins
are made using special proof dies and are struck more than one time to
give the coins a distinct mirror-like detailed image.
(See
our related article about how proof coins are made.)
This attractive 6 coin set comes housed in
a protective hard plastic holder. All six 2009 quarters show an S mint
mark behind George Washington's portrait indicating that the were minted
at the US government's mint in San Francisco California. You will

United
States Mint 2009 District of Columbia & U.S. Territories Quarters Proof
Set™ (Q09)
Here is what the
official US MINT says about their 2009 official government issued proof
quarters:
"The United States Mint 2009 District of Columbia and U.S. Territories
Quarters Proof Set contains six new quarter-dollar coins honoring the District
of Columbia and the five U.S. territories. Enjoy the unique character of the
District of Columbia, the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico, Guam, American Samoa, the
U.S. Virgin Islands and the Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands as
portrayed on these beautiful works of art. These coins are a shining embodiment
of the United States Mint’s commitment to quality and excellence."
"United States Mint proof coins are extraordinarily brilliant, with sharp
relief and a mirror-like background. Their frosted, sculpted foregrounds give
them a special cameo effect. Proof blanks are specially treated, polished and
cleaned to ensure high quality strikes. The blanks are then fed into presses
fitted with specially polished dies and struck at least twice to ensure sharp
relief. The coins are then packaged in a protective lens to showcase and
maintain their exceptional finish.
This genuine United States Mint proof set is not only a timeless collectible,
it also makes an impressive gift for friends and family."
2009
Territorial/State quarters were
minted in two varieties by the United States government (US MINT): clad
(copper-nickel) and silver. Both varities have the same designs.
The above description is for the Copper-Nickel version.
