WAM... WAM...

[1more4me]

Finally found th etime to check those three boxes of cents I've had for weeks. First box nothing special, second box- WAM, third box- WAM again! Both 1998's First one was grungy but the second is pretty nice. Might send that one for a slab just because I don't hav one slabbed... Not necessarilly a real uncommon coin find but certainly uncommon in two boxes in a row!!!
Rest of the take was about 18% copper and 31 wheaties...
PEACE

Cool finds...I go thru so many pennies and i dont even look for these...might have to change my stratigic plan

Wow nice! I've looked though 10 boxes and have yet to find one XD

Nice find. I look for them but have yet to find one. I'm sure I've missed some.

Always good to find these. Save your money on the idea of slabbing. Why pay more for a slab than the coins worth.

^+1 The only coins worth slabbing are probably MS63+ 1999 WAMs

Coppercrazy and enamel7-- The slab idea is just for my benefit and to add it to my collection. I will pay $15 to have it certified- so when I die and the kids fight over it in 30-40 years it will be worth more hopefully...
Looks to me like it ought to get MS60 or better with a little care.
Any guesses to grade?
PEACE

Ok, i gotta ask. What's a "WAM"?

 

[enamel7]

Read til your eyes bleed!

 

[New Seeker]

Boss Driver they are Wide AM - The A and M are stamped "wide" rather than the traditional "close"

You're right- It's $14.00 at NGC but I forgot about the additional $15.00 for errors...
Or, You could pay the Premium or Elite membership and get a better deal since you have plenty of good ones.

It's not an error. It's a variety. See how much a variety attribution costs. Call them. Some varieties are free to attribute.
