Was searching my second box today, and in the second roll of the search I found this little beauty right here! I didn't think that I would EVER find one... but what a lucky day. Into the 2x2 little guy!

WAM's are found on 1998P, 1999P and 2000P.
CAM's have been found on 1992D and 1 or 2 1992P. These are exceptionally rare.

You can see the spread, or lack thereof, with a magnifying glass, but you'll need stronger magnification to spot the difference in the initials.

Newbismatic,
I was SO going use that title for my post when I found my first WAM, but I haven't found any yet and you beat me to it! Great minds think alike, I guess.
Oh, and congratulations!

I just posted in this thread the other day that I was still searching for my first WAM. Must have been good luck because I just pulled a 1998 from a roll about 10 minutes ago!! If I can get my wife to show me how to use the scanner/copier, I'll get pics up.

Nice find for being in change or rolls.
Hopefully this doesn't mean one less for me to find.
