47P7 Pillar of the Community Canada 1505 Posts	Posted 01/05/2015 11:32 pm it is a very normal 9. Nothing else. I am not aware of a low 9, just a normal and a high 9. However, it appears there are different "heights" of the high 9. Report this Post to the Staff
Altaira Pillar of the Community Canada 2519 Posts	Posted 01/05/2015 11:34 pm It's a low 9. A high 9 has its "tail" level with the base of the 2 beside it. Report this Post to the Staff

JeyRey2000 Pillar of the Community Canada 743 Posts	Posted 01/06/2015 09:37 am AMnight - keep on looking as many dealers even miss this variety. There are from my experience two levels of high 9s as well. One level with the base of the 2 and the other slightly higher and there is no doubt of it being a high 9. I would call them 1)high 9 and 2)very high 9. Report this Post to the Staff

47P7 Pillar of the Community Canada 1505 Posts	Posted 01/06/2015 12:38 pm JeyRey totally agree with u! can someone please explain the term " LOW nine?" If there is a low 9 and a high 9 there has to be a normal (zero level) 9, as the high and the low term have to have a neutral location to determine high and low. I am not aware of a low 9.

JeyRey2000 Pillar of the Community Canada 743 Posts	Posted 01/06/2015 1:21 pm I think the term low 9 has taken place of the "normal 9" the highest percentage of 1929s look like the ones above thus becoming the norm. the other 2 varieties becoming less numberous and the higher value of the two types. so there really is no Low 9 per say! Even the charlton states 1929 and 1929 high 9, no mention of normal. Report this Post to the Staff
