Is this a SMS? I am new to coin collecting, and I am going through I bunch of coins I recently purchased. Truthfully it is hard when your knowledge in minimal at best. Could anyone please tell me if the top left looks like a SMS. I also have a 1961 magnetic coin that is silver colored.

No this coin is a proof coin as stated on the label.

It is a function of 'auto rotate' on your phone - try to keep your phone slightly elevated when taking images from directly overhead.

No, it is not an SMS but a proof strike as stated on the label.

You have a better chance of getting hit by lightning ⚡ on consecutive days than finding any 1964 SMS coin in the wild.
