    Shooting for the moon here! I just acquired this coin and have questions about the reverse having slightly different features with the Earth compared to some of the Type-2’s I have seen. What caught my attention were the Caribbean Island’s area. Directly South of Florida I can see a “raised” and not incuse “island” kinda like a worm. The Earth also appears to be out of round, with flat areas on the east and west of the planet. The Gulf of Mexico also appears to be slightly smaller. Thanks for the help!
