1964 Franklin... does it exist

Since we were all just talking about the 1959-D Wheatie Link I was wondering about another Modern Ultra Rarity that Breen mentions in his book that I've never seen ANY mention of it anywhere else, and that's a 1964 Franklin (and, no, I'm NOT talking about the 1964-D Peace Dollar). He tells quite a story about it (page 416). Has ANYONE ever heard anything else about that coin?

Philately will get you nowhere....

    It was November 1963, actually.
    When in doubt, don't.

    If we're looking for ghosts, how about a 1931 Standing Liberty Quarter? Seems unlikely that they would end the SLQ in 1930 and have a replacement ready for 1932 but avoid any possibility of a 1931 need.

    What do you think? Possible? Maybe King Farouk had more than one really rare US coin?
