    I bought 20 rolls of pennies from the local bank. On my 8th roll, i see almost half of them 1992! Upon closer inspection, one of them is 1992 close AM!! Any idea on how much this could be worth? Pictures later. :D:D:D

    Pictures, then we can tell you value. If it's a legit close AM, and a Philly minted one, a few thousand to start... IIRC, there's only three discovered out there right now.

    I'm just overly cautious with coins like this because I've personally found a cent I thought was a CAM but wasn't upon closer inspection. There's a lotta factors that can make a WAM look somewhat like a CAM and whatnot, so...

    Does it look exactly like this? If you got your loupe already, now is the time to use it. :)

    On a similar note, I've noticed there are three varieties for spacing on the 1992's... there's a close AM, as above, a mid AM which is just a bit further, and a wide am, which is a pretty decent distance. The mids and wides are common, at least for me.

    This is like telling a funny joke but leaving the punch line out..

    :yawn: Don't mean to sound cynical but is it time already for our weekly "found a '92 CAM - bad pic,no pic" thread?

    That coin is not a close AM.

    Can you get a larger clearer picture straight on. The angle may make it look closer than it really is.

    Wow, my eyes must deceive me because it still looks like a cam to the naked eye!
