What makes you think it is a SMS 1964? All 65, 66, and 67 SMS sets did not have a mint mark. They were minted in Philadelphia.

Thank you @Kentucky for Posting the HA auction. I like reading their description of coins. In the whole 5 coin series, the largest number of graded examples is 18 by PCGS. I don't believe that Their were any graded by NGC, at least not in their description. I thought it was pretty neat that each coin HA gave a little more insite to the validity and individual character that they had.
@Willysilver I think your an OK Cat, way to stay positive.

Anyways below are some of the most recent HA auctions for SMS coins.

Thanks bud i will look at all ur links thanks i do have a real nice 1966 sms i think no mint mark half cant see any copper it weighs 11.94 weird

 

The strike is so deep and thickness is amazing

 

65 thru 70 are all 40% silver, The copper is there other wise it would weigh 12.50

 

Where they all SMS 66's that's my question

 

I'll get it out and post a pic if you could help me thanks I just don't do halfs it's just real clean and shiny but there's no deep cameo like appearance so I don't have a clue and it looks off center cuz if you feel the rim it's real sharp at the bottom by the nine and real flat at the top by the T

 

If you can help thanks preciate it

 

You could start A thread about it. I would be happy to help if I can.

I posted a thread on a 1966 half let me know what u think thanks

 

There were both regular and SMS issues from 1965-67.

ALL the coins from those years were plain. There were no D or S mint marks.
