I am pertty sure that the 9 teeth is older and even it was equipped with Alloy NR at the same time with Steel Record. But due to matrial problem(?.. worn too fast and cracked), Campy quickly changed to 10 tooth pulley. It is highly collectable and rare to have 9 tooth ones.

There was an eBay auction of NOS Campy plastic pulley about month ago, some one paid over 1100.00 for the set, but they were not 9 tooth set. but something to do with wrinting on the sidewall(?). I was totaly puzzled about the auction.
