SMS...?
Rick Tomoska wrote a book on 1950-70 Cameo Proof and SMS coinage that is very informational on the topic. It also has a substantial number of pictures of these coins.
PCGS would grade it as an SMS coin. No if's, and's or but's.

same number for mint sets as for the rest of the circulation
strikes. Since so few coins are saved it means almost all PL's
come from mint sets.
The problem is exascerbated by the fact that SMS dies were
used to strike coins for circulation in San Francisco. At least
some of these are PL but this is, ironically, the source of very
few PL's in all probability.
This coin was pulled from an original bank wrapped roll... I picked up 13 rolls recently. It is a general circulation strike. The reverse does not have the same proof like appearance and looks similar to most circulation strike. I've looked a hundreds of SMS coins and I am certain this is not one.
Can you show a pic of the rim?
The trouble with 1965-1967 is the mint used some of the old SMS dies for business strikes. Therefore, really nice looking coins, business struck or not, may end up with SMS designation.

The more qualities observed in a coin, the more desirable that coin becomes!

Not specifically but there are a lot of different finishes seen on coins
dating even back into the '50's. The only ones I've seen that appear
to be "frosted" over the entire coins, I believe, is an effect caused pri-
marily by the planchet.
