I know the math isn't on my side. Giving this a shot anyway. Don't have proper camera. Nonetheless, to the naked eye and with my bad phone the AM and FG appear different to a regular 1992D. Couple people agreed without knowing why I asked them to compare in person with naked eye and magnifying glass. So what the hey.

Apologies for image quality. Linked also is the raw image (I hope the host site didn't compress much.) Will attempt better pic if this proves intriguing enough.

Thanks all!

Alternate link less compressed I believe--

Updated with sharper picture links (via poor plastic magnifier and phone, but works enough)

Yes, please post full pictures of the front and back of the coin, because if its what you say it is, it looks like you may have the real deal! And it looks to be in very good condition too

Thanks for the replies. yes I'll make some full coin photos. Just have phone and magnifying glass. Takes wife's help to hold glass. Anyway, will try to get sharper full coin shots.
The image limit requires compressing so I'll also post uncompressed links. The initial shot is just tricky, not shaking phone mostly. Took few dozen just for these few collage choices. At least wanted to get the AM and FG opinions first to see if intriguing enough to not warrant immediate dismissal.

Maybe before bed I'll attempt basic front back without amazing sharpness (unless get lucky) so this doesn't get a prank perception.

Thanks again!

It helps if you set the phone on a book or something above the coin. It will take out a lot of the shaking. Just tap it lightly to shoot the photo.

OK managed some sharper shots. Through plastic scratched up pocket magnifier. There are magnifier artifacts.But better than first try.

1 front
1 back, AM better focused
1 back, FG better focused
