So lucky with the error cents! Need help grading 2000 Wide AM. Think it is MS65+

[Coppercrazy]

So I've searched about $600 in cents, and have found my double sided brockage error cent, 1998 and a 2000 both wide AM's, but then I stumbled across an absolute gorgeous 2000 Wide AM. I don't know if I'm going to sell it or not, but I need help grading. Unfortunately these are the best pictures I can take, but all help would be appreciated. I love it, absolutely beautiful. Of course I could just be over exagerating, but I don't see any scratches at all, and almost if not all the hair is visible with full steps. Anyways see for yourself!

What exactally is a wide AM? I know its the a and m in america but are the letters wider or is it the gap between the letters?

 

[Coppercrazy]

The gap between the A and the M in America on the back are wider, like on a proof die or 1992 and earlier coins. The 1998, 1999, and 2000 wide AM's were struck on proof dies, which is an error. Also, the M will be closer to the E than the A, whereas in the regular coins, the A and M are touching or really close to it.
