So, very few proof cents, repurposed to make 1964 SMS cents retain the little quark above the horizontal 4 leg nearest the rim. Every 1964 SMS Cent from Heritage Auctions to PCGS have that little quark.
If I was to actually have that quark on the 4 and a repurposed proof die, where no proof dies were normally re frosted in a need for repurposing outside the 1964 SMS experiments, must the definition fit the strike direction?
Saying, there was a time during the 1964 SMS trials that were reserved for the US Mint doing things to dies that were not usually seen, has to be a distinguishing factor.
