DVCollector Bedrock of the Community United States 10045 Posts	Posted 05/26/2009 5:29 pm Hi, Comparing the distance of AM to ME, I think this is a normal Close AM. One way to tell is the Wide AM variety has much more equal spacing on both sides of the M. Report this Post to the Staff
steve199 Pillar of the Community United States 1882 Posts	Posted 05/26/2009 5:32 pm Welcome to the forum. Sorry, that is not a Wide AM. One easy way to tell is to look at the spacing between the "M" and the "E"...on the Close AM (your coin), the "ME" is spaced further apart than the rest of "MERICA". Report this Post to the Staff
