At the same time, 1965-dated copper-nickel clad coins (and 40% silver half dollars) were also being produced.</p><p><br /></p><p>The prohibition on using mint marks was correlated to the year shown on the coin, not that actual calendar year in which it was struck.</p><p><br /></p><p>The 1964 Philadelphia Peace Dollars were produced as die trials, some time prior to the Denver production.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
