Ive been out of the coin loop for awhile now, and have seriously missed this place and all you ragtag members
...
So, with that said, Ive bought no new coins, but I did pull a 1999 Close AM Lincoln out of my pocket 3 days ago. Its got a tad bit o brown to it, but enough red to get the red grade. Maybe a 63-64. No rub and no major hits, but its not the best example Ive found in change.
So that was a nice find, but other than that, Its been no coins for... Wow! Close to three months.
I need a fix...
Anyone get anything new they feel like sharing with the class?
btw, Ive missed you guys and all your antics.....

What's so special about a '99 Close AM?
Hope all is well and glad to see you back. Are you sticking around? MJ
Fellas, leave the tight pants to the ladies. If I can count the coins in your pockets you better use them to call a tailor. Stay thirsty my friends......

you mean Wide AM ??
anyway, better search for the color guarantee on copper.... that's changed. ok, being eliminated soon.
In the 90's, IIRC, the mint starting spacing the A and M of America on the reverse with the proof strikes. I guess some hubs or dies were then used with this feature on some reg business strike cents. They sell for a couple hundred dollars apiece. I sold two this year, earlier in the year for a good amount of money, espacially considering their from 1999... I hope that is enough basic info to answer your question...
I have not had any luck finding a 99 wide am cent. I guess your just lucky. Congrats on the find.
Peace Out

You need a fix for your 3 month dry spell - so what's on your wish list?
Ummm... A AU50 1879-O $20 Liberty Double Eagle in PCGS plastic... Or any $1golld from the N.O. Mint in anything XF and up in PCGS plastic...
And of course world peace...
Well I guess the biggest thing that has happened, and frankly i'm shocked that I am the first to mention it is.............Coinguy1 is back!!!!!!!!!!!! He was before my time but the hoopla for his return was/is grand! Cyberly speaking, you will meet him soon
I had the 2000 and a friend had a 98, before the variety was publicised.

A mild rip, I confess.
