Comments
FG engraver's signature
KM#201a is for coins dated 1982, whereas KM#201b is for all coins dated afterward.
1982 is a transition year: the earliest coins were struck in 95% copper, and the latest coins were struck in copper-plated zinc. One of the most noticeable differences between the two is the weights (3.11 grams versus 2.50 grams).
Reverse
Die 005 - G in FG tall, AM to AMERICA widely spread, narrow script.
Die 006 - G in FG flared, AM to AMERICA widely spread, bolder script. See on the first photo above by Heligal for year 1992.
Combinations
Die 005: 1986, 1987, 1988 all issues.
Die 006: 1988 (rare), 1988 D (rare), 1989-1992 all issues, 1994-2008 S (Proof), 1998 (rare), 1999 (extremely rare), 2000 (scarce).
In the American numismatics the business strike of 1988 with die 006 is named 'transitional'.
In 1992, all coins were meant to have a wide "AM" of "AMERICA"; however, some were struck using the design meant for 1993 pieces (not using the proof, contrary to what the documentation says), resulting in some having a close "AM" of "AMERICA".
In 1998, 1999, and 2000, there were two different intended designs: those meant for regular circulating coins and those meant for proof coins. The design of the circulating coins was meant to have a wide "AM" of "AMERICA" whereas the design of the proof coins was meant to have a close "AM" of "AMERICA". Even so, some regular circulating coins were struck with the reverse proof design, and some proof coins (known 1998, 1999 only) were struck with the circulating design.
