Without showing the 4 digits in the above pic,..I can't see the proper perspective. (I like drawing a line across the 4 digits)

The 2 and 9 seem to be tilted upwards on the right side of that photo.. The base of that 2 is not parallel to the bottom of the photo..IMHO...Sure it's a high 9 ..but that pic doesn't work well for me..

As before, I'm not seeing any marked difference between my coin and other examples pictured here - especially since these pictures are taken at different angles and perspectives. This sure is a ponderous variety. In any event, I paid less than $10 for this coin in the 90s so even if it comes back with no 'High 9', I'll be ahead. Does anyone have an up to date ICCS form they can send ne?

What really would be cool, is having someone who is a master at MS Excel, make a spreadsheet _exactly_ like the ICCS submission forms - so when you hit <print> it looks like a standard typed form, that one could populate and edit in Excel... I could do it, but I would be terribly slow at it...

I would grade the coin as MS 64 personally. I think it's a very nice piece and to hear you picked it up for $10 that's awesome!

For the high nine a lot of people like to make a line at the top of the date digits but I like to make a line that runs across the bottom of the "1" and the "2" ... also going across both of the 9's

In ever high 9 I have seen that has been graded .. the bottom tail of the 9 will be just slightly below the line that is made from the 1-2 digit positions.

I see a whole lot more than just the tip of the tail cross such a line from your coin... however I do agree that it is slightly "higher-set" Hence why there's some people here that call this a medium 9.

How about someone tell ICCS to make an auto fill document? I worry that in 20 years all those coins in ICCS flips will lose their integrity as their tracking and databasing are next to none.

BTW - looks like a regular 1929 and not even the high or ultra high 9 like the one SPP has shown before.

For submission purposes, it really does not matter... ICCS accepts these from me (I print them from PDF scans).

It's a mute point and I'm not being argumentative but if you do use the older forms, ICCS does hold you to the calculated balance difference if you use it repeatedly. The form isn't the issue, it's the the revised amounts ICCS charges. They only take cheques and have no way of making adjustments. Sure you can scratch the 13 and add a 15 instead. Heck, ICCS will even take submissions on a napkin as long as the numbers add up.

The coin is now en route to ICCS. I paid for the one week turnaround and FedEx return mail so we should have our answer before long.
