All of the 2009 R9s were 50th anniversaries. The first 500 were one of several "editions" There were several colors after the initial Heritage Cherry burst or Heritage Dark burst that were one of 59. All the serial numbers belong to the same series. That is, they do not start over at 001 for each edition. Just because your SN is
991058 does not mean it can't be one of 59 of that edition. It is just the 1,058th one made from the ENTIRE run of R9s made in 2009.
