I'm a bit confused here. I thought SMSs (Special Mint Sets) were only made in 1965, 1966 and 1967. Anybody?

There were a few (VERY FEW) 1964 SMS Sets, but all of them were held by the Mint director (I forget her name) but a few of them were handed out to some special people (don't know who) one or some of them have broken out the sets and sold them at auction.

Very nice!  It's too bad that I can't afford it. 
Errers and Varietys.

Quote: My guess it'll go for $50,000. I'm not sure it will go for much more than the $30,000 bid - alot of uncertainty with these 64 SMS coins - nobody knows how many were minted and they don't even know if they were minted in 64!

Thanks Dearborn and Marve65 for the info about the 1964 SMS. A numismatic mystery of which I was unaware.

@Marve, you're probably right but as it hasn't budged at all from $30k. Maybe some fireworks in the last 5 min?

Ended up at $36,000 ($40,500 BP) Maybe the winner needed it to complete the set

Just an unbelievable coin to be in that condition. If I bought it, lol, I would send it to CACG to get it sticker-ed. Simply beautiful coin which will increase in valuable in near future.
