Yes, this is correct. For instance, on 1967 halves, there is a DDR that occurs on only on business strike coins. So, if you have a 1967 "SMS"...

Sometimes the only way you can tell them apart is if the coin has a die variety particular to SMS or business strike coins. TPGs have a tendency...
I'm seeing repunching on the 6 and 9, and possibly the 8. Nice find. :)
It is true that some famous coins have had their certified grades increased over the years, but I don't think the reason is what you say it is....
Nice coin. :) Whatever you do, don't try to remove the "tarnish" or "clean up" the coin. You'll only end up making it completely unappealing to...
