JimmyD Bedrock of the Community Canada 21620 Posts	Posted 12/08/2022 2:37 pm That is a CAM. See how the A in STATES is closer to the right T, If it was a WAM it would be centered. Report this Post to the Staff

Dearborn Moderator United States 96935 Posts	Posted 12/08/2022 3:28 pm yeah, sorry, this is a CAM as stated. Collecting since 1972. Learning from then on "Tell me and I forget.

datadragon Pillar of the Community United States 1648 Posts	Posted 12/08/2022 7:56 pm Yes unfortunately this is a normal Close AM found on business strike Lincoln cents for that year. The reverse of this 2000 business strike coin was struck with a reverse proof die accidentally in some cases (Proof Wide AM) but not yours. The easiest way to determine if a 1993 to 2008 business strike Lincoln Cent is struck in error with a proof reverse die is by looking at the letters AM of AMERICA. • From 1993 to 2008 business strike Lincoln cents should display the letters AM of AMERICA close to each other and almost touching or the Close AM style reverse. Anything different, is considered a variety or a Mint error. • From 1994 to 2008, regular proof Lincoln cents display the letters AM of AMERICA separated from each other or the Wide AM style reverse. Anything different, is considered a variety or a Mint error. Report this Post to the Staff
