<p>[QUOTE="Puddin'Farts, post: 3345202, member: 100439"]Haven't found much on the SMS Quarters of 1964 aside from it being a Type A Reverse and the Polishing Lines running everywhere, especially behind the bust and peruke running every which way. This one definitely has raised lines all over and has a semi to full proof like reflection on both sides.</p><p> After posting my last one that was proven to be polished and seeing what was learned through the help on this forum, this one seems to at least be a product of the mint with no tampering. </p><p> I have gone through probably every picture that I could find of the SMS Quarters and noticed that the polishing lines tend to vary from coin to coin, so decided to attempt finding characteristics of the die itself and noticed a few similarities with the outer devices. On the word QUARTER, the A connects to the R at the bottom and the E and R connect at the top. The T connects to the E in STATES at the top between the 2 letters. On the Obverse, the only notable mention that I've noticed is a thick file line or beginning of a die crack runs from the top of the R to the T of LIBERTY.</p><p> I highly doubt that this is it, but after looking around for PL 1964 Quarters from my previous quarter of question, I came across the SMS too often to not ask opinions. Hopefully it's at least a nice PL example this time.[ATTACH]885912[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]885913[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]885914[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]885915[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]885916[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]885917[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]885918[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]885920[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]885922[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]885924[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
