<p>[QUOTE=&quot;messydesk, post: 2103250, member: 1765&quot;]For a circulated 1964 Kennedy, nobody&#039;s going to care if it&#039;s proof or a business strike, since either way its value is bullion.&nbsp; Remnants of a mirrored field would be your best hint that it&#039;s a proof.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>There are two things to look for that would indicate a circulated coin is something other than an ordinary business strike, and worth a premium over bullion.&nbsp; The accented hair is proof only, so if you see this on a coin, it&#039;s a proof.&nbsp; The SMS half, if I recall, has a small teardrop die chip by the 4 (can someone corroborate, please?), and is a rare coin.&nbsp; I don&#039;t know if the same dies used to make the SMS coins were also used for normal business strikes, however.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
