Hi and welcome.  I am not sure that there is a variety of Wide/Close AM for 1996.  1992, 1998, 1999, 2000 I believe are the only Wide/Close AM varieties

   Welcome to the NGC chat board.

   Please post clear, cropped photos of each full side of this coin.  Otherwise, it would not be possible for us to evaluate your claim.

Looks like a normal close AM to me from your photos.   The initials are clearly that of a close AM.

Hello and welcome!

I as well would like to see full, cropped photos of both sides of this coin. I think for the 1996 D Lincoln Memorial Cent, there is no known WAM and they were all struck as CAM.

However, I will state from the individual "slices" of it, from what I can see, this wouldn't make much of a difference. The surface looks terrible and environmentally damaged.

I've found others . I found this one but it was easy to spot .

  The 2000 "Wide AM" cent is a nice circulation find but not a particularly valuable one.  I purchased an uncertified Brilliant Uncirculated example at a coin show a few months ago for $5.  Please note that it is best to limit each topic to the coin referred to in the topic title.

  We're still awaiting full, cropped photos of each side of your purported 1996-D "Wide AM" cent, which I understand is not a known variety. The photos should look something like these (of a 1991-D):

The OP posted larger "slices" of the cent in question @Sandon, but I still don't believe there is anything out of the ordinary, and I also still believe the OP's cent is too environmentally damaged for it to have any collector value.

The 92, 98, 99 and 2000 penny the rare one is the close AM? Or are they different? 92 close and others wide one is rare? 

[Halbrook Family]

I got it I think. 92 can be p or d close am. 98 99 2000 must be a p and the one to look for is wide.
