Hello everyone. I was searching through my change and ran across two 2021 Lincoln pennies. The two pennies have different style A M. Can someone explain the two? Is one a wide and one a close A M? Thanks for all the help.

There are no CAM or WAM in shield cents.
Can you supply a photo so we can see what you are referring to?

Flag4 I thought so as well. I'm fairly new to all this and wasn't sure if it was correct or not.

The dies were created normal, but die polishing reduced the strength of the weaker AM area. Both are normal, just one is from a polished die.
