An RB9a. Not sound, as it has a corner crease at bottom right and a fairly large thin, but aesthetically nicer than most that are encountered.

A nice-appearing example would normally be out of my price range, but the seller had it misidentified as as an RB8a.

Wow! That's a nice one! Don't know how anyone could mistake a RB8 for an RB9, though, as it's pretty obvious in that the denomination changes from 50 cents to $1.

I thought it was an ink drop from the pen.

"I thought it was an ink drop from the pen."

My thought as well. Remember, fountain pens are sloppy!
