1945 Tripled 9 penny and a 9 over 9 Both these coins came up for sale with the same seller, advertised as 9 over 9s , but on closer inspection one turned out to be a a triple 9 . David J Groom lists a tripled 9 type, but as far as I know its not listed by Gouby ? . Anyway I personally have never seen a picture of one , Groom lists it as ex rare . The first picture In close up is the Tripled 9 . Second close up picture has indicators of the three 9s . No1 is the top and bottom of the first 9 , No2 is the bottom and right side of the second 9 , and No3 is the normal 9 . It also appears to have a 4 over 4 . Below is the 9 over 9 Gouby Bb

I'd say this belongs in Ancient, not Hammered.

That buyer would not be a full shilling methinks

Then when it sells for 30,000,000 yen they will say that it went for way over it's estimate.
