<p>[QUOTE="mhen, post: 767042, member: 22176"]thanks for all the help snaz. much appreciated. that site bummed me out though because I know through the pics on the 2nd sight you suggested that some one is right. I see no evidence of an 8 under those nines , just evidence of smeared damaged 9's. lol and what they call a beard,lol, no 8 has a stick on it at the bottom left. yet a worn 9 die stamp would cause that beard without any doubt. with metal pressed out at the worn mark/chip. making many varities really just damaged 9 die stamps. Ive seen that same mark numerous times, on numbers through my ten years of changing worn numbers in dies. if there was an 8 you would always see the part in the gap of the 9 and it would completely join the bottom.seems like people just guessed on what it was and were wrong. They should have just called them an error!or smeared 9. any one want to buy a set of 1858-1920 large cents minus 1 coin a DN N9/8. according to the uni-safe album, which should be a DP #1.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
