Richard --
I had thought of N9s, but didn't think any of them were rare enough that Burdick wouldn't have it. I didn't realize how many variations there are in that set until I looked it up in Forbes and Mitchell just now. I have the "Papal Standard" one among my 40 N9s, which I gather is the more common one. I assume the "Pontifical States" variant was the one that Wagner sent to Burdick, who mixed up/merged the two titles in his letter.
