Let me know what you all think. Bought a 1964 (Mint Set) inside one of those plastic holders for $12. The photos online were very blurry but something caught my eye on the Lincoln Cent. It is definitely not a Buisness struck coin, and it does not appear to be a proof in anyway besides striking detail.

Just looks like a business strike with a partial print and a nick in the hair.

A business strike . But your last photo of reverse throws me off . Need to be more consistent with your pics . The rims are not proof rims and I really don't think it's a 1964 impaired SMS Coin .

with Coinfrog. Is the fingerprint on the surface of the coin, inside the plastic? Sure looks so!

The rims are THE most important diagnostic for the '64, and yours are lacking. I'm pulling ferya, but

with an estimated less than 3 dozen struck, the odds would be astounding.

Business strike. Not a proof, not an SMS.
