So I might have an 1893 double 9 large cent. I'm trying to get pictures up but I don't have the equipment to take nice enough images. Anyway, is this variety collectible? I know that it's price is probably two or three times the regular 1893, but do people seek out for one? I've seen a few on ebay but they didn't sell for much more than your typical 1893 |

Yes the double punched 9 is very collectable. 10x price
Yes the triple punched 9 is even more collectable. 15x price.
Also you can look for the punched 93.
I have a couple of double but still on the hunt for the rest.
I'm sure there are others as well.
Is coin collecting fun or what?

The RP-9 in the 1893 Lrg Cent are easy to find in low grades the higher the grades the tougher to find one, yes people collect them and easy on the wallet for this variety.
