<p>[QUOTE="William Bailey, post: 7409923, member: 117191"]I too have two '64 Kennedy's (one no mint mark and one D) that each have a different style of lettering. The D has a flattened wider rim and the lettering and relief are much more sharply defined than the no-mint-mark coin, which just looks like every other business strike-circulation '64 half. It is also different from other business strike '64D halves and is definitely not a proof. So I too am wondering whether it could be an SMS or perhaps one of the test "experimental" strikes that were reportedly prepared in '64 for the '65 mintages. I've read reports that some of them might have ended up in mint sets.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
