I've encountered this image, what appears to be a TSR-licensed AD&D 2E product titled F9516: Religions & Avatars. Not quite the same as TSR9516: Faiths & Avatars.
A different printing? A fake?

maybe the original name or a placeholder name till they decided on a title? then decided to go with a better sounding one...
though doing a google search it looks a bit like Religions & Avatars was the name of the product sold in Europe while Faiths & Avatars was in the US, but that is just a guess from the hits that came up when doing the searches... |

Different titles for different regional markets? I don't see why, unless the book was translated. It looks English to me. |

It might be a knock off, however could be a UK printing. Website appears French. The product number might be all that is different if you get past translation.
Clearly does appear to be TSR 9516 - Faiths & Avatars in a different language. |

Open the pages and very likely you will see French, likely what the F stands for. |
