In 1999, the Philadelphia Mint issued around 400 Lincoln Memorial pennies with a definite space between the A and M in the word “AMERICA” on the reverse of the coin – this is what you should look out for. The other coins issued have virtually no space between the letters, which look like they are touching. The so-called 'Wide AM' coins are now worth up to $500 apiece.
