What do you think here is a side by side of 2 1996 one is a Close AM and the other a Wide?

Agree, you'll get more replies if you show your images right-side up.

I haven't heard of one ever existing besides the one Billy Crawford "discovered" and it was P mint. It was never sent to anyone and was never verified by anyone but himself. I think you can see what I'm saying here. Thats a whole different story. It looks like a possibility but a closeup would be needed

Both are normal close 'AM's. Look at the location of the 'M' between the AME. AM E Is the Close AM. A M E is the Wide AM. The space on the 'M' is centered on a wide A M. On the Close AM, the 'M', is not centered, but off to the left. So look for the distance on the 'M'. Centered or off to the left:

WAM varieties are known for 1996, although I think it's literally like *an* example. This is not it, however.

Bit of advice SeanGon, when looking at a cent that you THINK may be a Wide AM, always look at the FG initials, they are the dead giveaway.
