<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Ian, post: 27510, member: 283&quot;]The proof of KM 9.1 would look exactly the same as the ordinary strike of KM 9.1 excepting for the proof finish otherwise it would have a different KM number. It&#039;s that simple. Whatever proof is / has been reported would use the same type. That is, he wouldn&#039;t be facing to the right.</p><p><br /></p><p>What you have is a `coin&#039; which purports to have the obverse die of KM 14 with the reverse die of KM 9.1. I just cannot see that as being a genuine coin. There is always the remote possibility of it being an Italian mint `error&#039;. The chances of that being the case are about as remote as finding a hen&#039;s tooth. However, if it were genuine it would be worth a small fortune. Well worth the cost of submitting it to the closer scrutiny of an expert in that field...like the Italian Mint or if you want to stick closer to home try PCGS or NGC. </p><p><br /></p><p>I wonder how many `experts&#039; hands it has passed through before arriving with you and your purchase at bullion value(?) . Doesn&#039;t seem very probable to me, but stranger things are reported to have happened. Is there a bright star in the east? What on earth is Frankinscence? Hey..anyone heard of Myrrh before lads?&nbsp;&nbsp; ;-)</p><p><br /></p><p>Good luck,.... and if it does turn out to be genuine you will be well able to afford to buy us all a drink or two.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
