I found these two coins for $13 as I needed a example of both a Close AM and Wide AM which is refering to the spacing between the letters ‘A' and ‘M' in "America" on the reverse of the Lincoln Memorial cent.

I just want to make sure that they are infact correct, so I can use them as guides to check against my rolls of 1992, 1998, 1999 and 2000.

I am new to collecting and sometimes photos are harder to learn from then coins in hand.

I also want to thank everyone on this board for making my first month of coin collecting a awesome experience

You are correct. On the Wide AM's you look to see if the "M" is centered. On the Close AM's the "M" is not centered.

That is so much easier then basing it on distance so much so it seams obvious now...

Yeah, I picked up that tip from Coop about a week or so ago. Much easier to spot off center Ms than strain aged eyes to see a gap. The reverse is also true when looking for a 1992 CAM.

The music is edited by me from a music program. I've made over 100 different songs. They do a good job of filling in dead air space with the different projects I make. I make DVD's of cars/trucks/dragsters/show cars and custom cars. Along with other things I use the programs I work on. I added up the car image photos I have and it is over 9,000. About 1250 images fill the DVD's on coins as that fills 2.5 hours (150 minutes) per disk. I'm glad you enjoy the music aw well as the DVD.
