The answer is "What is a Coper?".

Copal?

A quick searched found many websites with a member named "rzocky2803". One site locates him/her in Canada. Maybe French is his native language?

My guess is that Erik is right. The OP probably meant Copal shutter size. If so, my guess is he/she is SOL regarding fitting it into a Copal shutter without pricey custom machine work.

That will never happen. I have two 9 1/2" Dagors, an American in an early Compound and a CPG Berlin in brass barrel, both from the era when they were marked with the serie/series number. Neither will screw into any shutter without adapter rings.

A 9.5" f/6.8 Dagor will require a Copal #3 shutter with custom-turned adapter rings. There are antique / obsolete shutter sizes that would be a closer fit, but for modern shutters, a Copal #1 is definitely too small, so a #3 it is.
