Bigupzjt New Member United States 8 Posts	Posted 10/22/2022 1:46 pm Good afternoon, I need more experienced eyes to confirm this as a 2000 WAM. The gap between the A and M is extremely small, but I'm going off of the FG, and it appears to be a WAM variety. If it is a WAM, should I get graded? Any help is appreciated Report this Post to the Staff

lawest Pillar of the Community United States 1998 Posts	Posted 10/22/2022 2:56 pm The "A" in "STATES" looks centered which would indicate WAM but the distance between the A and M almost look close to me. Let's see what others have to say. Report this Post to the Staff

The 2000 WAM also is the most common of the CAM/WAM varieties. Report this Post to the Staff
