Yes extremely rare. I have only seen photos of them, have never held one in my hands or come across one anywhere. Nice Find.

Just brought home an Edison C250 today that had 3-12" sample records inside, 
Nos. 9, 10, & 11. I've heard about them but these are the first I've 
seen. Seems there isn't a lot of info floating around about these. Are 
they scarce/rare? How high does the series go? Beyond 11? How frequently 
were they issued? Stuff like that. 

The 2 drawers were full of Diamond Discs and more than half had their 
original sleeves with stickers describing the artists and songs, all with 
the embossed labels. I think this bunch of records is original to the 
machine. Very cool! 

There were also a few of the 57000 series (german). 

Any info would be appreciated. Thanks! CDB
