    Hey guys Im new to the forums I thought I would share some of my roll finds I have found. I found this one several years ago this is one of 4 I have found but this one is the best one I have found so far. I just recently got a usb micro camera and this is first time using one so I hope the pictures are ok

    I think what your seeing here on the OP coin, is just the lettering wearing down on AM . A009 - 20150922_092633 (2).jpg A001 - 20150922_090942 (2).jpg A036 - 20151029_081901 (2).jpg

    Yes Ken but it has been over multiple years and I dont know how many thousands of dollars of pennies I have gone through. I will post close ups of the three I have right now when I get motivated today. Rick Stachowski I can see why you think that but that is not a very good picture. This is first time using a digital microscope i'll play around and get better pictures today

    this is my 3rd one I found the fourth I sold a long time ago. The funny thing about me finding the wam cents was that the first one I found on accident I hadnt yet got into die varieties but had read about them and one day I was at work and looked in my cash drawer and seen 2 1999 cents and noticed a difference in the 2 that was in there I took it to a coin dealer and he told me that it was the wam cent and from there I have went through countless rolls searching. Im down from surgery right now and im going through a hundred dollars as we speak hoping to find the elusive 1992 close am

    Make sure they all have the flared G and not the straight G .

    Is this close enough pic of the fg for you to see cause they all have the hook like a upper case "G"
