We need the reverse pic the same size as the obverse. Cannot tell anything with what you have given us.

Your question involves the reverse (back of the coin), it's too small to make anything out.

Reverse pictures are too blurry.

Appears from the tiny photo to be a Close AM reverse - which is normal for the year.

Show us a larger photo of the reverse to be sure.
Take a look at my other hobby ... http://www.jk-dk.art

We need a large, complete pic of the reverse, oriented right-side up.

Didn't someone on another thread say to diagnose close/wide AM by the FG? Not that I agree with that advice, but Thump is doing what people said to do.

FG: That looks like a near FG with a hooked G. The rightmost edge of the F is considerably far back from the edge of the bottom step. The step is aligned with the middle of the G arch.

Separation: Even on the tiny pic, that A has separation. Approximately the same as M to E. On a Close AM, the distance A-M is way, way closer than M-E.

Posts: The posts of right A and left M are level. The Close AM has a slightly cocked A relative to the M.

That coin looks very promising for a 1999 LMC WAM variety.

I could be completely wrong, of course. The images are tiny. But I think when Thump posts some quality pictures of America and the FG, that penny will be a winner.

Based on the reverse image provided it looks like a normal 1999 (CAM), the A does have some separation but that could related to die state, also, the TAT in states does not look quite right for a WAM. All things aside when a new reverse image is provided we will know for sure.

It looks like a WAM from the FG, but better pictures are needed.

Still hoping we get some quality pictures of the full coin reverse, America specifically, and then a close-up of FG.

Pics to small. But the FG looks right for a WAM.
