Hello Friends:angel:,this was the First out of (3) 2000 Wide AM's I have found.I wish the other 2 looked so nice as this one...but..I'll get more.
Yesterday, I just kept on going,things were a bit dry..then..suddenly a friend from 1909 (Dye-Block-Error Reverse,Planchet Breaking Error Obverse,Nice Rims,Great Stalks) said hello,and turned the story around to a Great Day in Linclon Penny Treasure Hunting.

God Bless,
Beck,
Kissimmee FL

PS: Yesterday,also the most Magestic 2003 DDO.I wish I can make a Portrait of it and Hang it on Wall as a Treasure of Treausres.God Bless! I see you in few weeks...got to search a bit harder,concentration is vital.Should I hit a 92 Close,I'll post immediatley.Good Luck on all your Treasure Hunting,too.

Hi Beck,

I can't really make out much from your picture. It might be a 2000 Wide AM, but it might not. The A and M look pretty close to me. The 1909 cent you describe would be a significant find. You always seem to find a great Treasure, way better than what anyone is finding around here.

I wouldn't hold your breath waiting for a 92 CAM. I believe there are some here who have searched over 10 million cents, and still have never found one.

Hi Beck,

I have to agree with Sean, the AM (from the pictures provided) do not look like they are the wide AM you were hoping for.

And again, I have to agree with Sean on the searching for the 92 close AM. I wish you luck, I think everybody is hoping to discover one of these.

Keep your treasure hunting up.

Lara

BECK- Do you have any die variety reference books? I seem to recall asking you before but don't know that you ever replied.

The FG initials "appear" to be closer to the memorial per the RDV-006 reverse on the WIDE AM. Also the "G" has me leaning towards.

On the RDV007 the memorial kinda lines up with the vertical bar on the G, on the RDV006 it is more at the halfway point
P.S. I have a nice Celeston digital USB microscope and it is fitting me well for the $50 or so.

You live in FL, just a block or so from Scooby, right? Voyager is in the same state, the two of you should get together!
