This Post of mine should be Re-Named " Brain Fart of the Week I know that the 2000 P Wide "AM" Reverse is a Variety be it not real rare one, but a variety just the same I was wondering if the 2000 D with the Wide "AM" reverse was a variety or the normal reverse for the Denver mint that year. Tried looking around the net first (CooperCoins, Lincoln Cent Resource) and saw no reference to it. Just trying to find out before breaking out the camera to take shots of this rather beat up 2000 D Edited To ad Pics: Some quick shots, There is some post mint damage just below the "AM" Does not touch the "AM". and the spacing distance between the designers initials and the base of the memorial match the distance diagnostics on the Lincoln Cent resource web site for the Wide "AM' reverse. Thanks Terry     Edited by stewart

Just a little hint...when you see a coin like this - just toss it in the bank pile. Even if it were a variety it wouldn't be in collectible condition. When I go through a group of coins the first thing I do is cull out the corroded, nasty coins.

Yup.Not worth keeping.This is what the younger collectors have to look forward to in a few years.

Coop Thank you for the picture. Now I know what happened. When on the Lincoln Cent Resource I was looking at the shots they have and for some reason I associated the designers initials widely spaced from the base of the Memorial as the Wide "AM" diagnostic. I had it exactly backwards Thanks Again Terry |

 That deer is about to lose a couple of pounds! That looks like a classic Gary Larson. Is it? |

Nevermind I can see it is someone else in the upper left. Looks like something Larson would do, though.
