Die marks check out, doubled lettering on all the mentioned areas. I agree with that statement, ive learned to wait until an expert looks at the coin and then confirms or denies it to be a genuine example. This coin is actually my second pick on my want list, next to a 92P CAM. Pretty stoked that I actually might of found one.

I would like to see it. The photos are too close and too far out of focus.

Wow your example has more of an aggressive spread along the words following the coins rim, compared to mine. The E. PLURIBUS. UNUM. Is right on track, similairity wise as in the spread. Ive tried bigger lights, shadowing , angles too. How easily, Sir, is your example to see with naked eye.

I am thinking that the last 2 coins in this thread are not from the same die. It seems to me to be especially noticeable when looking at the bottom of ES in STATES.

If you have 20/20 vision, you can see it four feet away. Like you said, it's an aggressive spread.
