dc1964 penny Unlike any i have seen so far, Almost matches the second image on PCGS Photograde.

SO i doubt it very seriously but who knows, im unfamiliar with the 64 sms pennies but this appears pretty darn close, THe color is an Pearl Tan, would be the best way for me to describe the color i would love yall thoughts.

Completely normal 1964 cent. Color has nothing to do with the so called sms cent, they were the same composition as any other cent and color would not vary. The so called SMS cents were not released to the public in any way, so are not something that can be found in circulation, rolls, etc.

 

I'm sure someone someplace cracked one out of a minty SMS and threw it into the wild world of circulation

What's a dc Though?
Dis concerning, dan carr...

 

Here’s a regular 1964 business strike for comparison. Pretty sure yours started out looking more like this.

 

…my guess is dc= “different color”…?

Guess I'm in that special group that you have to spell everything out for

 

Most forums ask members to avoid text abbreviations/shorthand made popular when flip phones were a thing.

Better to write things out.
