AJOH's 2000 P Lincoln Memorial Cent Small Cents : Wide AM

What this coin looks like (obverse, reverse, mint mark location, special features, etc.):


The US Mint produced two major varieties of the 2000 Lincoln Memorial Cent (Penny). The most common variety for 2000 is the close "AM" variety. Although the one shown above is the rarer wide "AM" variety for this year.

In the word "AMERICA" on the reverse of the coin: The close "AM" meant that the letters "A" and "M" were very close and almost touching while the wide "AM" had the two letters separated much more. In Addition: The initials "FG" was closer to the Lincoln Memorial Building on the wide "AM" variety and it was further away on the close "AM" variety. The difference between the close "AM" and wide "AM" varieties are shown in the example image below. Click the image to enlarge:
