It's not a proof or a SMS coin, but it's surface texture suggests a different manner of manufacture from a regular business strike.
According to the Coin World Article, it could be one of the 4-"first-strike" coins for the ceremonies at Phillidelphia and Denver.
It will be offered at Baltimore next month. Maybe the buyer will know what it is.

That was a frantic time at the Mint. They had to produce the Kennedy design in a hurry, the coin shortage was underway, and they were producing as many coins as they could manage. Who knows what they did with all that craziness going on?
New collectors, please educate yourself before spending money on coins; there are people who believe that using numismatic knowledge to rip the naïve is what this hobby is all about.
BRian.
Russ- yes it is labeled Specimen. Heritage will have it in their Signature Sale 7/26-30
