Proof coins are typically struck for collectors and not intended for regular circulation.

A "Restrike" means that the coin was struck at a later date using the original dies. In the case of the 1804 Turban Head Gold Eagle, restrikes were produced in the mid-1830s, decades after the original 1804 mintage.
