I have a 2009 Lincoln Memorial cent with a Wide AM. I'm new to collecting and it's my understanding that Wide AM was no longer used by the mints after 92. Also I noticed it has a large o in the word of. Please information on this would be appreciated. Thank you.

Pics would help but I believe you are incorrect with this but we will see what the pro's say.

I believe you may have stated the incorrect year? The Wide AM versus Close AM reverses were on memorial cents, which ended in 2008. I am unaware of reverse design variation for the bicentennial cents.

If you actually are speaking of a 2009, then a large O in OF is normal and as far as I know there is no Wide AM variety. They all resemble the Wide AM of 1998-2000.

It is not possible to have a Wide AM on a 2009 cent because the Lincoln Bicentennials used completely different reverse die designs that are in no way comparable to the Memorial reverse.
