Description
Rare SMS MS66 Red 1964 Cent
1964 1C SMS MS66 Red PCGS. In 1993, Stack's offered the first 1964 SMS coins at public auction. Since that time very few others have appeared for sale. No documentation exists to prove how many were produced. Presumably, those sets were an experimental striking of the SMS finish used between 1965 and 1967. David Lange estimates that somewhere between 15 and 25 such sets are known today. This is the first lot in a five lot offering of a complete 1964 Special Mint Set. Like the next four lots, the present coin has no indication of abrasions, and the luster is satiny instead of prooflike. Pumpkin-gold with a hint of rose on the lower reverse. Infrequent minute carbon is of little import. Population: 2 in 66 Red, 7 finer (6/08).(Registry values: P1)Coin Index Numbers: (PCGS# 3284, GSID# 2202)
Metal: 95% Copper, 5% Zinc
