Welcome to the forum.
There are no BEADS on a 1964 Nickel, there are denticles.
The first beads on a Nickel were introduced in 1965.

As stated above, there are denticles, not beads and they kinda look live a zipper. look here:

They are all the same size and shape, but can be a difference in how exactly the coin was struck and how tired/worn the die becomes from overuse. Worn dies will look fatter and a little shorter. The denticles in the die will also fil with grease or other material and be either missing or faint. It's a common coin.
