HELLO coin community. Been searching through some rolls... I finally rcvd my coin microscope and my cardboard holders for my LMC and I believe I found a Close AM on this 1998.
What do yall think? Also one more question. Should I send out for attribution? Thanks so much for your good honesty as always:)

Your title reads close "am" but you indeed have the wide 'am". Nice find.

Edit- Looking closer, the coin in the 2x2 looks like a Close AM. The one in the third pic on the right does look like the Wide AM. John1 is right though.

Please remove coins from 2x2 holders before you take photos. It is also a bit dark and out of focus.I don't feel comfortable saying yes or no with these pics.

Heres pics of the 1998 out of the holder. I had to crop a bit more to upload. The 3rd pic from first post was taken under my microscope.

I was going to say yes, this is a Wide AM until I saw your microscope pic, where it looks like a Close AM. Is it the same coin? Pics don't match.

Note the differences of the locations of the 'M' on the close and Wide AM.

Centered is Wide AM. To the left is a Close AM. Its not the distance of between the 'A & M, that makes a difference. It is whether the 'M' is centered or off to the left. That is the differences.
