My HK-366a, ain't! I need a real one!

I'm looking for a real 1909 Alaska-Yukon Pacific Expo. HK-366a SCD in Au+ condition. The medal I thought was this is unlisted SCD #72 on Unlisted So-Called Dollars site and (HAPPILY) not a listed medal:

I have money and/or other So-Called Dollars or Comm. Half Dollars to trade.

For comparison, here's HK-364 (aka John Raymond, "JR-72") from Raymond’s website. HK-364 is in HK 1st edition but not HK 2nd edition. HK-366a is 33mm.

HK-364, 32.1mm

72) This piece is evidently listed in the first edition of HK as HK364(but with no actual image of the obverse). It is not listed in the second edition. This piece and the one above both measure 32.1 mm, so technically both are too small for inclusion as so called dollars. But the original authors of HK included HK353, so I guess these also need to be let in(See what happens when you open the barn door, even a crack? In this case we let one in, and in walk two others. This is why I am pretty adamant about not allowing any piece in as a so called dollar that is below an absolute minimum of 32.6mm - rounded up equaling 33mm). A US mint product? Rare(read #71 above). Gilt, 32.1 mm in diameter as is HK353.

Thanks for the picture @Zoins, my picture transfer fizzled into the small rectangle under the address.

Can you reach out to me please, I’m a new user and recently moved from the Seattle area to Arkansas, I have in possession my father in laws coin collection as he passed late 2021, I believe I have a HK-361 Taft SCD coin and am looking at some more info as it is hard to find good info on this coin, thank you

Another difference between the HK366 and HK366a is the reverse of the HK366 has 10 flags and the HK366a has 14 flags with the 7th left flag actually touches the roof, along with the lettering size difference and the doorway differences. So If the obverse rays are discernable, the reverse contains more diagnostics. JMO

Sorry about the loss of your father in law.
Might I suggest that you start a new thread and if possible, include photos of your coin in question?
There are indeed many very knowledgeable members here that might be able to help.
