I got these myself from rolls a long time ago and would like to share these. I found the very beat up and severely bad environmental damaged one in a customer wrapped roll while the other one was from a bank box from circulated rolls. The one from the OBW roll is in much nicer condition than the other one. Too bad about the first one I found, but it is what it is. I haven't found any others, which I probably won't and this is the best it's going to get.

Update: I bought Acetone and put my most beat up 1998 P Lincoln Cent Wide AM for a soak yesterday. I let it soak until the Acetone completely evaporated. I checked on it this morning and here's the results.

E&V Hint, give your coin another bath in acetone. Not good to let the liquid eveporate, all the crap gets put back on the coin!



Best take it out, rinse off if you want (isn't necessary)with distilled water but let air dry

Don't worry Crazyb0. I washed it off and dried it off. Sorry about that. It was my first time doing it.

Don't reuse the old acetone either!

No no, I don't reuse the old Acetone. I get rid of the old Acetone. Whenever I need or want to do an Acetone bath, I always use fresh Acetone from the can. :)

Congrats! I've accumulated almost half a roll of the 1998 and 2000 wide AMs via roll searching over the last few years. They are still out there, keep looking and you'll probably find more. I'm still seeking the elusive 1999 version and the 1992 Close AM. Those have been found by other members here - so they do exist!

Thank you afcop13. I will still keep looking since they're still some out there. I remember finding a 2000 WAM at Walmart. I posted it on here 11/27/2017.
