I think you scored, ofcourse the 99 wide am is the rare one. yours is worth a cent. keep looking.

 

Yes. That is a Close AM. That is normal. You want a Wide AM like this:

 

It is tha 99.

 

Ooo

 

Not tha wide tho

 

check every other 99 their all close, the rare one is a wide am.

 

So it’s just a penny

 

different years vary with the good one being wide or close, proof dies some years were used. If you like to coin roll search, its best to buy a red book, or us blue book, they tell you the common varieties and what to look for.

 

Yes.

 

Meow has seen an article or two online regarding WAMs and CAMs. With charts and detailed photos. Just google something like 'Penny WAM' and you should see them.

 

Ditto about the reference books. I purchased The Red Book a couple of weeks back and LOVE IT! It is so very helpful, along with Error-ref.com

 

I was searching through some more change and came across this is this a WAM by chance

 

No...it’s a CAM. A WAM would have spacing more like the rest of AMERICA.

 

Almost!!! Thanxs

 

Not "almost". It either is or it isn't. In your case, it isn't.
