The photos look a little like an 1859, narrow 9, inverted 9 over 6, but I don't think it is that either. Maybe a scarce Haxby narrow 9 pair? Or else, somebody believed the holder. https://coins.ha.com/itm/canada/can...ption-071515 http://www.victoriancent.com 2011 & 2025 Fred Bowman Award Winner, 2020 J.

CanadianCollector Valued Member Canada 306 Posts	Posted 08/16/2025 5:13 pm Buy the coin not the holder. It's a PC59-68 rarity 4 which is a narrow 9 and also has a repunched 9 but not one of the really dramatic ones that are worth a lot of money. Coin isn't worth anything near what he paid IMHO.

Wade Pillar of the Community Canada 2781 Posts	Posted 03/11/2026 9:05 pm sorry to necro an old thread, but been checking my 1859s, more specifically 9/8's... I'm not a decimal guy, but HOW did that get labeled 9/8? Edited by Wade 03/11/2026 9:06 pm Report this Post to the Staff
okiecoiner Pillar of the Community Canada 5585 Posts	Posted 03/12/2026 10:03 am Well, it kinda looks to me like the narrow 9 that we put on p 291 of the 65th Charlton. We priced it at 10X what a normal narrow 9 would be. I haven't checked what the Haxby number is, but the underpunch seen and the condition of the vine at 7 seem to me to be p 291. In any case, it certainly isn't a 9/8, and the grader should go back to school. Report this Post to the Staff
