Collectible coins, specifically the Special Mint Sets of 1965, are a notable category in numismatics. These sets were produced by the United States Mint to replace traditional proof coinage, which was temporarily halted. The 1965 sets include coins such as the Lincoln cent (1c) and the Kennedy half dollar (50c), and they feature a unique finish that distinguishes them from regular circulation coins. The absence of mint marks on these coins indicates they were not intended for circulation, enhancing their appeal to collectors. Special Mint Sets from this year are sought after for their historical significance and unique characteristics.
