| Me and a few others here told him on a FB group his coin wasnt legit and tried to help him out, but it would seem he was only there to confirm he had hit the Jackpot since he subsequently posted it on Ebay soon after... |

| Even with the coin in hand that would be somewhat hard to tell with 100% certainty... There's no known 1964 cent known in Specimen as far as I know, most would say only 10c and $1 exist in that finish and the rest likely doesn't exist. |

There's slight variation in the finish of those, some have a slight reflectivity, others have a more satiny surface.
They specify "matte" specimen that year only just to distinguish them from the mirror specimen issued that year. They look generaly similar to previously issued specimen from the 30's. |

Id say most likely an aftermarket custom case, very cool item !
Here's what I have regarding the original, as-issued sets, that would explain why they are so often pristine and untoned and why no true specimen case surfaced... this is the third time I see mention of 1965 specimen set being issued similarly to the PL set so I think this is somewhat legit. (they did issue some Sp dollars in leather case) :
Id love to see one of those red card one day... |

Just the light used make all scratch visible, the coin would straight grade at PCGS IMO. Ill definitely try to remove the rust deposit on it eventually.
Did someone saw another one out of curiosity? |
