In my opinion, the San Francisco mint did a very good job trying to hide any and apparently all 1992 CAM transitional test strike. Evident by the complete absence of any S mint CAMs being discovered yet. Opposed to the 30 or so Ds and the 8 or so Ps.

Already in route. Thank you for the refreshing debate. No disrespect meant

The second larger image if the obverse now has me firmly convinced that it is a 94.

It has to be a 4 sorry. If it was a 2 the point wouldn't be so close to the 9.

Sir I admire your persistence but a certified nuismatist has already submitted it.#128530;

Would be quite something is this comes out as a VG-10 1994 cent or so. :)
I'd be very interested to hear what the outcome of this cent by this 'certified numismatist' is. For now, I'd say it's a 1994 cent, also based on the lower right of the 4 (the 90 degree angle), which a 2 simply doesn't have. It might also be due to a scratch in a 2 though: photos taken with a cell phone are never good enough to be conclusive. If you have an SLR present and some good light source on it and then take a pic, I'd be very happy.

In my honest opinion, it's clearly a 1994. Don't be blinded by hope.

Not blinded by hope, standing firm with conviction. Not afraid to be wrong. So far by my count the 94 and 92 trams or neck and neck , niether side being outnumbered. Only outspoken

If you look on the reverse side- and if you go to wexlers cherry picking guide and open the link to transitional variety key dates I believe is whag its called. Click on the 1992 and read on how mr. Wexler uses mint marks to positively identify key date coins. Now find a 1992 p CAM and use what you learned from wexlers explanation of relying on other methods to identify a CAM transtional reverse design. I'm not hoping to be right I'm using what ive researched on line information given by experts. I'm no expert by any means but I'm no dreamer either.

Racketeer, thanks for those images they prove it is a 94. Notice on the 92 if you draw a line along the base of the 2 it is even with the bottom of the 1. On the 94 a line through the horizontal of the 4 intersects close to the middle of the 1. A line through the horizontal of the "2" on the OP coin meets the 1 just below the middle. Nowhere close to being low enough to be a 2.

Conder - the same diagnostic I had. I showed the picture to a friend of mine. He's an inspector but not a collector. He thought 4 immediately but admits it sure does look like a damaged 2. He stuck with 4 as well.

With those side by sides definitely in the 4 camp
