    be my guess.... wanted all to know.. we all read and look at cents..but if some of you are at a shop...you might want to check on some of these coins... the type b and c quarters have a nice value..and really can be found at shows...I found 1 at this FUN show just checking around...you can sell them on e-bay and gain a little for cents..the dimes are a new listing in the cherry pickers guide.. no one is attaching a price to them yet..but I have seen them selling for $20 to $30 each for mint state coins..not bad for a $1.50 buy from a dealer...I will search and if I find more than 1 I try to show the dealer..he then usually ask me if I know of any others..this opens up the ultimate seek and find...and could help him out..halves..they just don't seam to carry any premium..the 1959 ddr does....

    1998 P proof reverse AKA wide AM or WAM
    1999 P proof reverse AKA wide AM or WAM
    2000 P proof reverse AKA wide AM or WAM
    This is our first Wrong Design Die on our list as these coins were made using a business strike obverse die and a proof style reverse die.
    And some mention of the proof "wrong die", the business die was mistakenly used on the REVERSE and the proof die on the OBVERSE. It's not a WAM on proofs, it's a CLAM.

    NO ... this is the 1998 Proof reverse coin.. or WAM
    NOT A 1998 S PROOF COIN with a business strike reverse...

    This exhibit was ONLY business strike coins...
    I am working on a CD-ROM that will list Business strike coins and Proof strike coins just like the exhibit... Look for it in around 2 to 3 months....
