CCFPress Press Manager United States 1420 Posts	Posted Today 8H 46M ago PCGS - Lincoln Cents are among the most popular coins to collect and offer many varieties. Wide AM and Close AM refer to the distance between the A and the M in AMERICA on certain Lincoln Cents. But there are other diagnostics these pieces offer that you can learn more about here. cjZhFH0Xcrg Read More: Variety Attribution Series Check out Books on US Coins on Amazon Report this Post to the Staff

Brandmeister Pillar of the Community United States 6695 Posts	Posted Today 5H 50M ago Is that video correct? The Wide AM for 1988 and 1999 are described as using the proof reverses. I thought the Close and Wide AM varieties were transitional varieties of business strike coins. i.e. the variety is 1988 reverse of 1989, not 1988 with proof reverse. Report this Post to the Staff

Brandmeister Pillar of the Community United States 6695 Posts	Posted Today 1H 13M ago Yeah, so just looking at a 1988-S 1¢ DCAM PF on PCGS, it seems to be a normal straight G and not a Flared G. https://www.pcgs.com/coinfacts/coin...c-dcam/93491 Report this Post to the Staff
