<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Kasia, post: 2280451, member: 31533&quot;]Here (under the pics and all) is some information that may help you determine what to expect if you are looking for a pre-1965 (meaning 1964) SMS coin. <a href="http://www.pcgscoinfacts.com/Coin/Detail/4170" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.pcgscoinfacts.com/Coin/Detail/4170" rel="nofollow">http://www.pcgscoinfacts.com/Coin/Detail/4170</a>&nbsp; You will find that the collection that the known ones came from were believed to be acquired by a person who knew the mint director. It is more likely that these (yours), which show no specialness that I can see on their surface, are regular run-of-the-mill nickels from that date. What you might start doing if you think you stand a chance of finding one in circulation is to buy and study the 1965-67 SMS sets and really look hard at the differences those show to your pre 1965 and your 1968 and on nickels as far as strike and looks to the metal, as the ones known can more be considered a &#039;pattern&#039; type coin I think (they were not made as part of SMS sets).[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
