The OP's coin is not the TP'd 9 that we put into the 65th edition of Charlton that shows many of the Vicky large cent varieties. Most of the 1859's that are in that Charlton were my coins or Brad's. Since the final digit of all the 1859's was handpunched into the working dies .. and it took 2-4 smacks of the hammer to the punch to make it deep enough, there are almost 100 types of repunched 9's floating around. Since we had so many different coins to choose from for '59, we didn't include ev en 10% of what could be found. The "official" TP#1 for 1859 (as listed in Charlton or Trends) is not like this coin, nor is it the TP#2.***(correction ... it IS the TP#2) Nice coin, but lucky to be a $500+ or $1000 coin. Coins looks MS wearwise, but looks like some corrosion on there as well.
