Hello, I found this coin today and I'm having trouble trying to distinguish whether or not the FG on the reverse is that of 1988 or 1989. I am somewhat leaning towards '89 but it looks close. Thank you!
In the third picture it doesn't look like there is a flare, or serif, on the G. There has to be a flare on it to be the 1989 reverse. Here is yours zoomed in.

Find yourself a 1989 in good enough shape that you can see the FG clearly and keep that aside to use to compare if you think you find a 1988 with the 89 reverse.
