The 1982 looks like "Q". May be was made in Quba. A joke ok.

 

Those fine Quban coins

 

but aren't Quban coins strictly regulated?

 

Not sure, smoke shop guy says they are made in Haiti or Santa Domingo or sum such with all Quban ingredients by relocated Quban rollers, to meet import standards. Smoke em if ya got em.

 

The 82 O/S looks more like a VAM-4 since the underlying crossbar on the VAM-5 should appear broken about midway down. Your specimen doesn't look like that.

As for the 84 O/O you'll just have to compare your specimen with the PUP's for the other listings. There are quite a few, and you have the advantage of having the coin in hand. I can pretty much rule out the VAM-6 because I have one in a 64DMPL, and it doesn't appear that your specimen looks anything like it.
