Mark1959 Pillar of the Community 7234 Posts	Posted 02/11/2017 3:42 pm Sorry. No. FG is far from the memorial base and the "G" does not have the serifs on it. Someone I'm sure will post a picture of how to tell the difference - I'm not sure if mine will post (Also I don' think "D" cents were ever Wide AM.) I'll be darn, it did post!
