1997 No Mint Mark Lincoln Cent Error AM too close

Hello All,

I am new to the hobby, but I discovered this penny and it looked peculiar. The AM look extremely closer than usual, but are not touching. Before I get overexcited, I wanted your opinions. I know such errors have been found in 1992 pennies. I appreciate any feedback. Thanks! I found this in NJ.

1997 P and D should all be Close AMs, the proof Ss are Wide AMs.

Interesting observation. Welcome to cointalk.

 

Roll searching has lead me to believe that since all the 'P' and 'D' minted 1997 cents I've seen look like that, that looks pretty normal...welcome to coin talk ;D
