CAM and WAM Coins

Just wondering do any of you think it is possible to find CAM or WAM Coins that are after 2000? what about prior to 1996? I may have found a few but really hard to tell

I was just looking through som chang and found a 2003 D with the AM touching.

 

That is perfectly normal. Any business strike cent minted from 1959-1992 has a separated AM, and any business strike cent minted from 1993-2008 has the AM touching

 

So what years would you look for in CAM and WAM? Also I have found a few coins that appear to not have the VDB on them what years are common in this?

 

Pretty sure Som Chang starred in a movie with Jackie Chan.

1992 CAM
1992-D CAM
1998 WAM
1999 WAM
2000 WAM

Those are the known CAM/WAM varieties, excluding proofs.

Is it POSSIBLE there may be WAM cent between 1993 and 2008 other than 98,99,and 2000? Yes. Just because none have been found doesn't mean they don't exist. there aren't a lot of people looking for them.

Could there be CAM proofs between 1993 and 2008 other than the 1998-S and 1999-S? Again yes.

Could there be WAM cents from Denver after 1992? Yes but not after 1997.

Do I think any of those are likely? I really have no idea because I don't know how easily they could accidentally mix up proof and business dies at the Philadelphia mint. It has happened at least six times. If it can happen six times it could probably happen more times.

 

Has anyone on the boards been lucky enough to find a 1992 or 1992-D CAM? I hear the Philly coin is worth quite a bit more than the Denver coin. I've only heard of finds and their realised sales through Coneca.
