oldmike Pillar of the Community Canada 891 Posts	Posted 10/20/2017 10:42 am I'm thinking Wide AM, the A in STATES appears centered. On CAM it is closer to the right T, and the FG appears to close Report this Post to the Staff
Finn235 Pillar of the Community United States 6130 Posts	Posted 10/20/2017 10:49 am Pretty sure it's a regular Wide AM. The best diagnostic is the G in FG. Wide has a serif, close does not. Report this Post to the Staff

CoinMasters Pillar of the Community United States 5964 Posts	Posted 10/20/2017 7:01 pm I agree it's a WAM because the TE of States is widely separated. There are several tells, but in my opinion equal spacing on each side of the M in America is the best one. If your picture was taken at a 90 degree angle I think it would show that. Edit: I meant say the AT of States is widely separated. Edited by CoinMasters 10/20/2017 8:18 pm Report this Post to the Staff

Crazyb0 Rest in Peace 10197 Posts	Posted 10/20/2017 8:23 pm I use the fact that the M is so out of place, is actually farther away from E and close to A Report this Post to the Staff
