Well, was checking out from Safeway after doing some grocery shopping, went to check my change and had to do a double take after this fine gent popped out. Third 99 WAM I've found and in MUCH nicer shape than the last 2 by uhh, a lot.

Excellent find! The A&M look a little close to me, but the A in STATES looks right. It is probably just the photo.

I would have missed this one if just looking at AM. Good eye you have to spot this WAM.

nice find - the FG is nice and close to the memorial as expected for a WAM as well.

Quote: It is probably just the photo. It is. My phone camera is a bit busted up so it has quite a tough time focusing on things. Quote: Will you get it slabbed? Probably. I've found MS examples of the 88, 98 and now 99 so they'll make a nice little collection. The 88 I've had for years in a 65RD holder, this 99 isn't as nice, maybe a 3 or 4 but still not bad. Quote: Wonderful that you have found 3 of these. Yep! If you look at my signature links as well you can find the 2 others I've managed to find, clear difference in quality. Great to have a freebie upgrade. Quote: I would have missed this one if just looking at AM. It's quite evident in hand if you know what to look for, blame my photography skills (or there lack of) not yourself.

Sam is right. A stunner of a find.
