I'm not a typographer. However, I believe that the reverse high "99" and
reverse high "9" are glyph variants of the high "66" and high "6" quotation
glyphs, respectively and would be use at the start of a quotation in
English.

Markus,
I am curious to find out who uses the reversed high "9", "99", and
prime marks that are listed in the General Punctuation block.
Alex.
