A little more info like what year your CENT is it would help.
Depending on year it could be a wide A M.
A picture would also be helpful. Help us to help you.

The biggest gap here is between the coin and the camera! Please crop your images so that we see only the coin, not the counter top.

When I zoom in I can see that this is a Wide A M as were all 1972 cents. The 1972 isn't on the CAM/WAM list, so no need to check them as you search.

The Close A M reverse wasn't used until 1992 when a reverse design intended for the 1993 Lincoln Cent was used by mistake. The 1992 (P) and the 1992-D 'CAM' reverse are both quite rare and valuable variety coins.

That's not the point, please crop before uploading, it makes it easier for people to help you and saves on disk space.

Well, images that look like they were taken from the space shuttle don't help us a lot. Cropping the images to the size of the coin, will get you larger images. But these better ones will show just a few devices per image:

Keep the devices level in case we need to edit the images. Always include some space outside of the devices.
