No, they are all spoken for. You have a better chance of being hit by lightning 3 days in a row than finding any 1964 SMS coin in the wild.

Oh, I didn't just find it. It's been our safe for the last 40 years.

It's still not one. That would be proof it's not anyway. They were all discovered in Eva Adams estate when she passed around 1990 while yours was in the safe.

What does a save have to do with it? It's not a 1964 SMS coin

While a nice looking coin which would serve as a good album hole filler, I agree with the above--it's not a '64 SMS quarter.

There were test pieces made in 64 at the direction of mint director Eva Adams, they all ended up at her house and were only discovered when she passed around 1990.

Unfortunately you'll see shysters on ebay do this.....

They take 1964 mint or proof sets and put them in the 65-67 holders and try to pawn them off as real. This is why so many people think they have 64 SMS coins.

Wow, that is so wrong. Everything you guys post about ebay makes me think that it is the everlasting Pit of Numismatic Despair.

Bobby, thank you for that information. I learned about SMS when I first started collecting in 1971 and was aware of any updates to their provenance.

Yep, True story Bobby just typed..
This is a very nice looking Business quarter. It might even be an uncirculated or close to it.
