Wide AM is rare on business strike cents for that year, but is standard on proof strikes like this one. That said, a proof strike is still a nice find, just not an error or variety.

Nice roll find. It is called an impaired proof. John1  ( I'm no pro, it's just my humble opinion )
Searched 6.5 +/- Million Cents Since 1971

That is a business strike that should have a CAM,being it has a WAM makes it a keeper. John1 ( I'm no pro, it's just my humble opinion )

@ OP - nice roll find! Impaired proof as already stated.
@ 279773 - you should start your own thread for the new coin so we can have separate discussions.
Take a look at my other hobby ... http://www.jk-dk.artToo many hobbies .... too much work .... not enough time. |

Never clean your coins, it will de-value them. Except for soaking them in pure acetone. Which you can buy from hardware store.
