I came across this 1999 penny and wondered if it was a 1999 Wide AM?

Looks like it to me.
Can we get a shot of the "A" in states and the FG?

 Nice - Excellent Find! Can you provide a shot of the FG and States as well. How is the overall coin condition? Looks pretty nice from the pics you already posted.

Thank you everyone.  The overall condition is not bad. I'm not familiar with the wide A, what does the a in states show and FG? Always learning here.

Excellent find!  On the Wide AM, the A is centered between the T's in STATES, the FG is closer to the memorial and the G has serifs. On a normal 1999 cent, the A is shifted toward the right T, the FG is farther away from the memorial and the G is sans serif.

Thank you everyone, and thank you helping me understand better about the A in states and the FG. I did a comparison with the normal 1999 and saw the difference.
Thank you everyone for all the help.
