Yes, that's what I think, but there are people who think that they are different, basing on this:
Quote:

"There Sauron took the Nine Rings and other lesser works of the Mirdain; but the Seven and the Three he could not find. Then Celbrimbor revealed, because neither the Seven nor the Nine did he value as he valued the Three" ("History of Galadriel and Celebron", Unfinished Tales)

And this could be read as the Nine were considered with less value...
