That would require a lot of researching.
Yes, your second photo showed the 9 had a small die chip. It was hidden by the lighting in the other photos. I think it a die chip on the reverse...
Well in that case, just read threads and don't post. You'll learn fast enough then you can posts. Lol I haven't seen anything from you that would...
