Meandice Valued Member Canada 256 Posts	Posted 09/04/2020 6:52 pm What do you mean "DP9 varieties of this year"? Report this Post to the Staff
JohnWayne007 Pillar of the Community Canada 1186 Posts	Posted 09/04/2020 7:00 pm There is a triple punched 9 variety and another variety that is just a repunched 9. I have only seen photos of the triple punched 9 so I cant say forsure if this is the other variety, but everything seems to be in the right location for it to be the repunched 9.

okiecoiner Pillar of the Community Canada 5624 Posts	Posted 09/04/2020 8:32 pm Yes, there are 3 types of DP'd 9's for 1893 and you have one of them, but we didn't include it in the 2011 Charlton. Then there is a triple punch and a quad punch as well. When we wrote the variety section for Vicky cents back in 2011, we couldn't include all the repunched 9's for that year due to space requirements. What you have is Griffin #203.
