It was pretty obvious they were not the same since ACB, once you actually stop and think about it. Because how could they find it in the Vault if it was already destroyed in the satelite accident?

Obviously the Apple from Cyprus was a different one. And as to how Abstergo got one from Masyaf, my theory is, assuming it was undisturbed until the time it got to England, someone was smart enough to get into the library through the wall, instead of the impenetrable door, since only that was made of unknown super hard material, and the walls were just like the rest of the fortress.
