I'm suspicious of where you have been receiving your coin related information.

This is an everyday common 1996 Zinc core Lincoln Cent. There are billions of them out there. Value is 1 cent.

Stick around here for a while and you can learn.

To CCF! You have a normal, circulated 1996 cent. Close AM is normal.

This would be a CAM. (so far, to date no WAM Varieties have been discovered for P or D coins.)

It's a Close AM, not a Wide AM, as stated on your first thread. Wide AM's do not exist for 1996. https://www.lincolncentresource.com/wideams.html

It is CAM. If you haven't already sent it to PCGS I wouldn't. You will spend a lot of money to find out what you now already know.

This is a CAM, it was a CAM in your other topic on this coin too.
That fact won't change. There are no known WAMs for the P and D mints as I stated in your other topic.
