Dearborn Moderator United States 95517 Posts	Posted 05/20/2023 6:49 pm looks like a WAM to me. 2 other tells are the A in 'States' is centered and the 'FG' is close to the Memorial.

Dearborn Moderator United States 95517 Posts	Posted 05/20/2023 8:00 pm a WAM is normal for a proof cent of this year and mint. So no, getting it graded wont achieve anything. Collecting since 1972.

oddguy Pillar of the Community United States 4135 Posts	Posted 05/20/2023 8:35 pm Do not mistake the WAM in a business strike with the proof. As stated, the proof WAM is normal but not on the business strike. That is the one you want. If you do find one the value will be 5 to 125 dollars depending on condition. It will cost you about 40 to 50 dollars to get it slabbed. Report this Post to the Staff
MariosCoins New Member United States 10 Posts	Posted 05/20/2023 8:37 pm Okay, I see that now. The error comes from this proof side being struck on a normal penny. So this is normal. Thanks for the help Report this Post to the Staff

Edit: Attempted translation: The error comes from the proof (reverse side Wide AM) die being used to strike a non-proof (normal, business strike) cent.
