Which is the "top" one - the one on the left, or the one on the right?

im not seeing in my browser a left or a right......just one above the other.

if the top one is the business strike...........i got it completely wrong :huh:

As I say, it's so hard to capture in a photo. Especially as I'm led to believe that the known 1964's aren't that great anyway. In hand, the 'bottom' coin (in your browser... try stretching the browser to make it wider) has a 'plastic' smoothness to the design and a mirror sheen to the fields.

The complete absence of lustre on an otherwise UNC coin is just about the only clue. As for crispness of detail over the currency penny, there just isn't any. As you say, "not that great".
