okiecoiner Pillar of the Community Canada 5675 Posts	Posted Yesterday 11:38 am You'll have to find the correct one visually, as there are many DP 9's. Since the last 9 was handpunched into the blank "185" die, there are many overstrikes. Make sure that it's not a 9/8. It would help with a photo so we can tell you what it is. https://www.coinsandcanada.com/coin...nt-1858-1859 You can also look in the 2011 Charlton 65th edition for some of them.

1960NYGiants Pillar of the Community United States 698 Posts	Posted Yesterday 12:27 pm Adding to okie's comments. There is a website dedicated to 1859 cents: https://www.vickycents.com, currently there are 41 reverse dies with the 9 reengraved or repunched. If it is a 9 over 8, then you'll need Rob Turner's book on the overdates, currently about 19 known reverse dies. Please post a good clear photo of the full date. edit to add: the "wide" 9 was only used on the overdate cents. Die wear and circulation can make the 9 look wide.
