A Rare Edition???

I am in need of some despirate help. I acquired Debt of Honor by Tom Clancy one year as a gift from my mother. I never really been interested in Tom Clancy's novels so I was just going to sell it instead of letting it sit on my shelf collecting dust. Well, I went searching around on the internet trying to find out how much I could possibly get out of this. Well, come to find out, this 'edition' I have is nowhere to be seen on the internet! I checked out the ISBN numbers that it has listed and both directed me to hardback editions of this book. The thing is, though, this is a paperback. It is the same size as a hardback and has the same number of pages as a hardback, plus the same ISBN numbers as a hardback, only this is paperback. One other difference I noticed is my paperback has just a solid blue cover background whereas the hardback has a blue transition. Other than this is a paperback and a solid blue background, everything looks authentic.

Here are a few pictures of what the book looks like.

Can someone please help me? Did I just so happen to stumble upon a rare find or is this some kind on fluke? Thanks to everyone that post. :)
 
Sorry. Notice where it says Printed in the United States...5 6 7 etc. That means it's a fifth printing. It's a trade paperback of some kind. It's not a first edition, first printing, or anything exotic.
 
Hmmm, but even when I look for 5th editions/printings I still turn up empty handed. I'm just wanting to sell this, but I don't know whether not it's a hard to find or what-not. Everything keeps pointing me towards hardcover, but it's paperback. It's been a week now and I have yet to find another book like this, even on the online auctions. Gets rather frustrating after awhile.
 
A search of abebooks.com finds four trade paperback copies with this ISBN, all under ten dollars.
