1964 sms ? 0

Hey everyone, so the research I could find were the die markers, it definitely has extra metal on the 4, the wire rim , and the die scratches(I think) just looking for input, not sure if this is considered satin like finish

Sorry but you do not have one.   The only coins that are considered as 1964 SMS coins are the handful of coins that came from the mint director's (in 1964) personal collection.   If you did not personally receive this from that mint director (and have documentation of such) or buy this coin from the auction where those few coins were sold (again you would need the proper documents) your coin will not be an SMS period.

🤓👍 so if one were to submit a coin they don't grade them anymore? Thanks for the reply, grateful

Welcome , The coin you have posted is a common silver 1964 . The only SMS coins are not available unless as stated in Coinbuf's reply.

They would grade it as a standard business strike unless you provided documentation that it is from the Eva Adams estate that was sold in the late 80s or early 90s

Stay away from the "Get Rich from Pocket Change" sites.  They never give you the full story.  They just want clicks and do nothing to educate people.  You will never get a 64 SMS coin in circulation because none were released to the public ( Did the website tell you that?)

No "Special Mint Set" (SMS) coins were made in 1964. The coins falsely called "SMS" are merely early strikes off new dies. This situation happens hundreds of times every year and is entirely NORMAL.

 The proof are 1964 (and other date) pieces in the Smithsonian which are correctly identified.

Whatever on-line "research" the OP has done is likely false -- lies by the ignorant and those pumping something for money.
