I have two that I think are #9 plus a horizontal 3 set.

The first is a #9, type IV, do you agree?

<---- is not an expert in any way!!

according to the book I just looked at with your image it looks more like a 6 type 1a..... a very nice stamp indeed! curious what others say and how they decide what in fact it is.... I am going by an older book and the identifier in the back explains the variations of this stamp.. but admittedly I am learning

I will post a top and bottom half @ 600dpi. File size is too big otherwise.

Not being an expert on this issue. But does appear to be a type IV. Clearly re-cut at the bottom and missing the bottom balls on the scrolls. Full Scv is approx $130.00, but in this shape would get about $20.00 to $25.00.
