I thought they only made proofs in silver for collectors.
That may have been true once, but not anymore. You can by proof sets of all the coins currently on offer, and a few more older ones, directly from the US Mint in "proof" form. These days, "proof" simply means double- or, occasionally, triple-struck, and better polished. Oh, and a fraction of a penny's worth of protective plastic capsule. :-)
