So, I would like to add this 87 Lincoln cent, View attachment 698867 View attachment 698868 If you notice that this has a wide AM,
The 88-89 transition affected the use of a bold FG (89) vs weak (88). This guy is spreading mis information. I also think that the slab he used is a mis labeled slab, as it is not correct.

Hi @Dj67 the 1988 is normal to have a wide am the varieties to look for the wide am is the 1998,99 and 2000 as they were suppose to have the close am and the 1992 P and D that have the close am cause they were suppose to be wide. The 1988 however does have a transitional variety and its on the designers initials the 88 is suppose to have a straight g and the 1989 is suppose to have a flared g but the mint accidentally started using the reverse of the 89 too early. The more valuable of the 2 is the Denver transitional variety for this year. I am posting one from Philly that I found earlier this year for comparison.
