-makecents- Pillar of the Community United States 8736 Posts	Posted 07/12/2023 10:25 pm Azhar66, you're just going for the whole shooting match, winner takes all! It is very seldom that you have multiple varieties on the same coin. Not saying it does not happen but not often. At this point, I see no evidence of a doubled ear, we would need clear, closeups. As Dearborn said, we need a reverse pic to determine the Close AM. -makecents- Report this Post to the Staff

Errers and Varietys Bedrock of the Community United States 73844 Posts	Posted 07/12/2023 10:39 pm We'll need a reverse picture and a closeup of the ear. On the obverse, I see Ridge Ring, which is Die Deterioration, from the die getting worn. Errers and Varietys. Report this Post to the Staff

jbuck Moderator United States 187862 Posts	Posted 07/13/2023 12:08 pm The image tag for the reverse had an error. I corrected it. Go back to the top of this topic to see it. And please be nice to our new members! That is an order!

Cointree Valued Member United States 449 Posts	Posted 07/13/2023 12:51 pm I would say no to double ear. No also to Wide AM from what I can tell from the font and the letters in STATES (width between TAT). Report this Post to the Staff

jbuck Moderator United States 187862 Posts	Posted 07/13/2023 2:30 pm Some are, some are not. I did not want to put individual(s) on front street so I issued a general warning. But I will say this... I find it interesting that no one noticed the link to the reverse image! It only failed to display because the [img][/img] tag had a typo!

Brandmeister Pillar of the Community United States 6473 Posts	Posted 07/13/2023 2:50 pm The TL;DR on diagnosing a Close AM vs. Wide AM penny: we need a good pic of AMER and also the FG designer initials at the bottom right of the memorial. Report this Post to the Staff

Dearborn Moderator United States 95200 Posts	Posted 07/13/2023 3:08 pm At any rate, I cannot tell from the reverse image by looking at the AM only and the FG is in the dark, Focus or glare is messing up the image a bit, However the 'A' in States looks centered - making this a WAM cent.

Thanks, Dearborn. Although, that is a subtle difference compared to the AME spacing and the hooked and close FG.
