After years of looking for wide AM's it is amazing when your eyes detect something a little off. I noticed on this coin that the "A's" had a curved look to them. The coin looks a little thicker than a normal penny too. Just wondered if anyone ever noticed a difference with circulated and mint state coins before?

Pic to follow. Too large to upload right now.

I took a picture through my 45x microscope. All of the A's look like that on the reverse and the e and l in "e pluribus unum" have a curve on the bottom left corner.
