However, I buy rolls of pennies, then relax and check them out. I have a 1999 shiney pretty penny and noticed that the AM in America are touching. Any worth on that at all?

Mark1959 Pillar of the Community 7234 Posts	Posted 01/25/2017 3:12 pm Seems like a Close AM - no value over 1 cent. Report this Post to the Staff
Druu Pillar of the Community United States 1000 Posts	Posted 01/25/2017 4:14 pm If the A and M are touching, it is a Close AM, which is normal for 1999 cents. The desirable Wide AM has a gap between A and M, plus the designers initials are closer to the memorial. After looking at the AM, I look for the serif on the G in the designer's initials -- that makes it a WAM. Like everyone else said, please post a picture of it.

Druu Pillar of the Community United States 1000 Posts	Posted 01/25/2017 7:56 pm Jennie, here is the thread I made when I wanted confirmation of my 1999 WAM. Coop posted a great picture. It has a close up of the AMERICA in both cases, plus close ups of the designer's initials. Note the different G. http://goccf.com/t/278531 Report this Post to the Staff
