Would an equation work for you? I think it's Special > Equation, and then you need to select Small, Medium, Large (based on font, not on complexity). From there click Symbols, and choose the Diacritical. In there select the very bottom leftmost symbol. Type a 9. Press Esc, m, p (note that is case sensitive) and it should work. If needed, go with a Medium or Large equation. I'd suggest you may want to build all of this one number in the equation editor.
