Historical Philadelphia Proof. San Francisco did not take over U.S. Proof production until 1968. The parent page contains this historical series for continuity; this coin is not an S-mint Proof.
Mintage is a compiled historical Proof figure, not a retail-price estimate. Some catalogues use different counting conventions for set sales and varieties.
