I realize that it is not in the best of condition, but I was wondering if it was an SMS 1964. * Moved by Staff to a more appropriate forum. * Report this Post to the Staff

Here is what one looks like for reference. US 1 Cent 1964 SMS - PCGS PF68 Inordinately fascinated by bits of metal with strange markings and figures Report this Post to the Staff

It was struck from a die that was wearing out. Report this Post to the Staff
