I finally found one of the Wide AM varieties. I've been looking at all LMC dated 1992 (for Close AM) and 1993-2008
(for Wide AM) I Look at them all because you never know what year could have had a goof up until they changed the reverse
completely. I believe this is one that is more popular so not worth very much am I correct? Also, do yoy guys notice any doubling?

thank you very much. I got lucky and the coin is in decent shape. ive had such bad luck finding coins that if werent damaged could sure bring a profit so this was a sigh of relief though not worth very much I suppose.

Well just keep at it. It seems to go in spurts - find nothing then find a few keepers. Reminds me of fishing - 6 places yield nothing then one place on the river and you have a cooler full. That's what makes the searching so much fun.

Yep, that's how it is sometimes for me. Just keep looking, and you'll find something good eventually.

From my experience the 1998 WAM is the easy one follow by the 2000 WAM, I have a few of each, twice as many of the 1998 WAM. The 1999 WAM seems really hard (haven't found one) and the 1992 CAM also very difficult (also haven't found one).

If you don't look though, you won't find it as the saying goes... great find! Congrats!
