A lattice set \(C \subseteq \mathbb{Z}^2\) is called convex if \(C=\mathbb{Z}^2 \cap \mathrm{conv}(C)\), where \(\mathrm{conv}(C)\) is the classical convex hull of \(C\). The projection count \(|C|u^\perp|\) of \(C\) in direction \(u \in \mathbb{Z}^2 \setminus \{(0,0)\}\) is the cardinality of the projection \(C|u^\perp\) of \(C\) onto a straight line orthogonal to \(u\). The main result says that any two finite origin-symmetric convex sets \(C_1,C_2 \subseteq \mathbb{Z}^2\) coincide if \(|C_1|u^\perp|=|C_2|u^\perp|\) for every direction \(u\), provided that the second coordinates of all elements of \(C_1\) and \(C_2\) are bounded by \(2\) and the cardinality of \(C_1\) and \(C_2\) is not \(11\).
