Think this might be the closest I can find them together, at least it's closer than the rest I've found

That is a WAM. Notice the FG is close to the memorial.
A CAM would have the FG further from the memorial.
Also it would be a variety, not an error, big difference.

These links are very helpful in distinguishing the two varieties: CAM and WAM.

I would also add that there are only two distances between A and M. The letters might appear closer due to Die Deterioration or circulation flattening, but the master hubs have a uniform distance specified by Close AM and Wide AM.

Good luck in your search! =)

It's the normal Wide AM reverse. Just a spender.

This is the expected Wide AM reverse so just a spender.

Also - the CAM you seek is only know for Philly minted cents, yours is from Denver so it's a double no.

The CAM is also for the Denver mint as well, click the link to see chart there. Close AM.
Now is it possible that the chart is wrong? yes, but have not seen any documentation proving either yes or no. [shr.

you want a CAM in hand to compare it to. just grab a 93+ coin from circulation

Don't just grab a bunch of 92s and say the one that looks closest must be it.

There actually is a 1992 Denver Close AM as well. https://www.pcgs.com/coinfacts/coin...-am-bn/83099
