Glen,

I would respectfully suggest that you clarify the requirement.  The "coupon 
rate" does not make sense as a "price type."  The coupon rate is a contractual 
feature of a debt security and an input into its price.

Most likely you are looking for either (a) percentage of par value ("423=1"), 
(b) yield ("423=9"), or (c) discount rate ("423=4").

Best,
John
