1896 Indian Head Cent Repunched Date

Just opening a few recent purchases and got a chance to look at this one a little closer. Looks to have definite repunching on the 6 and possibly the second 9 as well.
Any ideas on which Snow # this one might be?

    Agree with #11 -

    Maybe Snow-4?

    Looks like something repunched on the '6' .... but having trouble finding the second '9'! (Can't really see anything on the first '9')

    I agree. The 6 is obvious to me.

    The 6 looks repunched... the 9 appears to have a die chip in the lower curl...(and there is only one 9). Cheers, RickO

    It's Snow-11

    Thank you very much for the help with this!
    I am trying to get a copy of the Snow books so I can figure these out.
    Seems to be a great reference for the series.
