Here's an earlier thread on the cent piece of the 1964 sms. Also, there is more information on google and the other browsers as well. ~Cheers! https://www.cointalk.com/threads/1964-sms-penny.234817/
With all due respect, if you want more than a very generic answer, perhaps you should ask more than a very generic question.

Can I "like" this post 8.54 gazillion times? Please? This OP is the same bird who got members to spew page after page about the hobby's historic/imaginary rarities. So having hit the "too stupid to do my own research if I can get you to spoon-feed me" lottery once, why not try again?
I never really cared for those SMS. Lame substitute for proof coins. They were cheap in the 90s, $3-$7 ish. Probally a few dollars more now. Being their own catagory makes them special, but theres so many other varities of coins, i passed them over.

There are several, actually probably hundreds of coins in the Smithsonain that were specifically manufactured for the Smithsonian under an agreement by the US Mint and the Smithsonian. Read about it in the August 2013 Issue of Coin World. Here's the cover:
LOVE IT! Notice at NO point did anyone think, "Oh boy! I'm gonna find me one-a-them roll hunting." Now let's all just think about why that might be.
