[QUOTE="John Burgess, post: 4710742, member: 105098"]From what I've seen of SMS examples, prooflike rims aren't the qualifier. Plenty of the die pairs were slightly MAD obverse. on proof you would want to see it nice and centered, but this wasn't the case for all die pairs used to strike SMS. All the 1967 SMS cents I've seen have a high detailed appearance, like the fields are "bowled", it's just heavily struck, while the business strikes were "flat" in appearance. The angle is wrong on this picture to tell if there is depth to the fields around lincoln, perhaps a straight on picture will help to get a feel for the depth of the strike.
