Another Reject Chute Score

CW3(ret) US Army · May 18, 2015

Last week while going thru my reject chute coins, I found a 1998 D WAM penny (cent for all you purists). My 1st WAM. I only started searching for WAMs after learning about them on TNET. Thanks for the information folks.

Great find Gary!!! It is cool that you were able to find that variety from the reject chute.

No you didn't. The wams are only on Philly issued cents. You probably have a cent from an over polished die. Sometimes this will cause a gap between the letters.

Oops! enamel7 you're right. I had used a 98D for a comparison & got the 2 mixed up. It is a 98 Philly cent I have not a 98D.

I know it's been awhile, but do you have a pic?

My camera takes a blurry picture when I try to do a close up. I had enlarged both sides of the coin on a copy machine & had my wife e-mail it me. However the e-mail attachment won't open. If you have a fax number I could fax it to you.
