MontCollector Pillar of the Community United States 2403 Posts	Posted 01/05/2018 12:33 am I hate to burst your bubble, but this is a CAM. It looks a little like a wan due to die wear. Notice how the left leg of the M is slimmer than the right? They should be the same width. Also the WAM errors only apply to coins from Philly I believe.

spru Bedrock of the Community United States 12477 Posts	Posted 01/05/2018 01:42 am It is definitely a normal Close AM. Think more about the centering of the M between the A and E than how close together any letters are. On a Wide AM, the M should be centered between the adjacent letters. Also, a Wide AM would have the A in STATES centered between the T's. On yours, it is closer to the second T, which means Close AM. You are right, Mont. The only collectable Wide AM's are on Philadelphia mint cents and only 1998-2000.
