Close "AM" or Wide "AM" 2000 D penny

Haven't been in the coin world long but I'm no stranger to a weird looking coin. Today I came across a 2000 D Lincoln penny and what appears to be a close "AM"...mmm now I'm not saying I came across the coin of a life time but simply wanting to know if this is an error or do all 2000 pennies have the close "AM"?

There are wide AM's. They are the ones sought by collectors.

 

.

 

For 2000 the close AM is normal.
Keep searching!

 

Thanks!

 

I found a close AM 2000 penny too and the fg is far from the memorial... I also have wide AM
Which are collected.

I have two of them on my hand now.They are thinner in size and feel lighter in weight and they both have close am but my coins are stuck besides another penny and appear to be somewhat smaller I have a 01993,d the same way what are these coins

 

I have a 2000 d penny it looks like the am are over lapping

 

This is why I am looking on line. I have a 2000d penny with a close am? What drew me to this coin was the feel that it felt lighter than a normal penny.Info?

 

Close AM for that year is normal, as already posted in this old thread.

If you truly believe you ever have a coin that weighs less or more than normal, you will need to weigh it on a gram scale that goes to at least hundreths of a gram. Then compare that to the normal range for the coin.

 

Now I'm Confused. I thought the Wide AM variety that you need to be on the look out for in the 2000 year was only a "P", not the "D".

 

You are correct. Don't be confused.

You're correct. There have not been any Denver mint coins with the proof reverse. Regardless, I don't know why people seem to think weight has anything to do with it.

 

Great article have a job to do lol

 

[*]I have a 2001 The two been double stamped plus a closed AM

1979 Lincoln Penny The D is RPM

 

Pics are blurry, but the number can't be "double stamped ". The 79 appears to be a die chip.

 

U R. Correct

 

The wide am....1992 was the last year of wide AM cents

 

I have 2 1990 pennies with no "S". Are they worth anything?
