Default What AWG is "Drop on ground" phone line wire?

Phone company left me 500' of 4 strand telephone wire with a heavy
insulation that is rated tough enough where all you need to do is role
it out on the ground ( no burying or hanging or conduits needed). I
want to draw 12v dc at 0.2 amps (one fifth of a amp) over 200' and
want to calculate or know the voltage drop . I am guessing 30 AWG?
