A nice one too. Good find.

 

I'm unfamiliar with this. What am I looking at?

 

Looks good. I haven't found any WAMs in a while.

 

very nice find!! :thumb::thumb: i'm still trying to find one.

 

the space between the A and M in "america" is separate, when it is supposed to be nearly touching. the reverse die used for this variety was meant to be used on proof coins, not circulation stike coins.

 

You learn something new every day, thank you Swish. Nice find Error Bug!

 

Thank you!:hammer:

 

I think I know what a WAM is but, not totally sure. Could you explain please. Gustaf16

2009 P Lincoln errors

In the recent issue of COIN WORLD, there is an article on page 24 about these pennies. I have bought at least 30 of these, mostly from Terry Zerr who is mentioned. Is anyone else collecting or looking for these coins? Thank you

Is the WAM on any year or just 1998?

 

Thanks, I'll keep this for sure.

 

Check out the link I posted

 

The WAMs are on 98,99 and 2000. Then the 92 is suppose to be WAM, but there are a few (and valuable) close AMs.

 

1992 Close AM
1992 D Close AM
1998 S Close AM (proof)
1999 S Close AM (proof)
1998 Wide AM
1999 Wide AM
2000 Wide AM
