To address several posts at once...

The difference between the proof and non-proof coins is the surface
finish.

The coin will have to be sized the same as the SBA due to the huge
investment in vending machine tooling.

Lastly, while the design is pretty to look at, it does not live
up to the "author's" wish that it 'look to the future'. Consensus
here upon showing it to a number of folks without any introduction
is that they respond 'Oh, is that a Moon Landing comemorative?'

Sorry, but please keep trying.
