Always tricky with this variety..

Thanks guys..

This cent is being given to a "group member" that's been looking for a long time.

Couldn't be going to a better coin collector friend IMHO..

Good things come to good people and it seems Devlec this is your time. It's funny how a tough variety will come along and 3 or 4 will pop up all at once. Then the variety disappears and it could be many years before another variety of this type comes along.
Is this variety this scarce?

It is for some of us. I finally found one, but it took awhile. I think CV mentioned a few times that it had eluded him also.

How many 20a2's have you found DEVLEC?

Nice picture of the 9 MG!

It has indeed eluded me...strange as I seem to be a magnet for TP9-1s and have about 15 or so of those, yet still none of the TP9-2.

..and how many have you found Phil310..?

_________

Rob's MS63 is the best at this point..but this example of Viper's is another great show here and his photography is always top notch..

.. a few years back a 62 did move in Toronto for > 2 grand....+ taxes etc..so it's a very tough cent..
_________

I now have found only 3 ..and this newest one is off to a friend..

Here is what to look for in my 3 examples..

Quite a bit of original luster showing in the last 4 pic example..

Thanks for posting all the pictures. I can see now how the RP-9 is so hard to pick out on this variety in the lower grades it would be almost be impossible to see it. Devlec & Viper your coins because of the grade the RP-9 jumps out at you. Wonder how everyone missed the 9's on these coins. It's good thing, because it allowed you to pick them up.

I've only found one DEVLEC, and only recently after a lot of searching. Your AU58 is really nice!
