I found this at Walmart during work. I found it on top of the counter above the cash register and there were four Lincoln cents there. I looked at all of them for any possible errors or varieties. There were no customers coming of course, so I had time to look at them. I flipped the 2000 Lincoln Cent over and it was struck with the Type 2 Proof reverse " Wide AM". I swapped it out with a normal Lincoln Cent that I found on the floor at Walmart. It's my 3rd 2000 " Wide AM" that I've found. It's a little beat up and not in the best condition, but it doesn't matter to me. It was a nice surprize and a great find!         Errers and Varietys.

How about that! Nice pickup. I'm still trying to find my first WAM... "Nummi rari mira sunt, si sumptus ferre potes." - Christophorus filius Scotiae

I have a feeling that cashiering is going to be a good pick for a future job as a broke college student.

Thank you Tootallious and Bump411! There are just not many coin roll hunters in my area. Quote:

Thank you Rlewis. It was the type of thing were you just get lucky without even trying to find it. I wonder how many 2000 "Wide AMs' are still out there?

Nice find indeed. I've come across a few in my limited cent CRH, but never one in change.
