I found this 1999 LMC with a WAM today, in rough shape but will give it an acetone bath to try to clean it up a little, super excited to have found one

Wow! That is the real deal! Congratulations! I still have yet to find either the 1992, 1998, 1999, or 2000 cent WAM/CAMs. Hopefully I will get there one day.

Seriously nice job! That is one amazing find!

Thank you silvercents, I have only found the 1998 and 1999 WAM and both have been dirty and banged around like you I am still searching in the hopes of finding the others, good luck in your search

Still, you're two coins ahead of me. How long have you been searching for?

Not long about six to seven months so far but been through a lot of coins, just learning the ropes probably let a lot of good coins get by but that is the process of learning I guess, wife says I am obsessed, she might be right

Not bad not bad. I've been very limited when it comes to searching large amounts of coins, I focus on cents. As a teenager, it can be difficult finding time to search. Haha, well, it is a great hobby and can be obsessive, just...don't let it take away time from your family of course.

I'm not even one to give advice but, I know how addicting it can be.

Rare find! I've been through probably 1.2 Million cents from boxes so far, I've found only 2. While that sounds statistically terrible, there are members on here who have searched far more coins without ever finding one, so be glad!

Nice find. 1999 WAM is the hardest one to find...98-99-2000.Does anyone think it needs an acetone bath? 2x2 worthy for sure.

Congrats ctrcrazy2!

Super excellent find

I have been through at least 500k cents and I have not found a single one of these. I found about thirty 1998 WAM and twenty 2000 WAM.

Thank you John1 and Levelsofmadnes I was definitely blessed to find this one, would it be ok to put it up without an acetone bath?
