Hi everyone!

I was going through some change I had and found a 1996 D Lincoln Memorial penny with misaligned/weird spacing on back, the AM & A in AMERICA are spaced apart from rest of letters. I tried to research it as I am far from being an expert. I just recently got into coin collecting for my daughter.

So from what I've read, it seems this coin doesn't exist? Not sure how that's determined- I have one right in front of me. Can someone please let me know their thoughts on photos I took? Thanks ahead of time for your time and info!

Now if you find a 1992-P or D with a Close AM like the Lincoln Cent you pictured then you have a rare find.
