Why is the iMac 11,1 missing from this list?

I was looking to see if I could. upgrade OS X on the iMac 11,1 . . . but the list of machines on the page below does not even include the iMac 11,1 - it's as if it does not exist.

What year is your iMac, that is how it should be identified. If you are not sure, please click the  in the upper left of your display and then click About this Mac and it will show you.

Also, please never post personal information such as serial numbers, phone numbers e-mail addresses etc. I have asked the moderator to edit your PI out.

Thanks for all of the help . . . I found this - iMac (27-inch, Late 2009), but it seems curious that it's missing from the list linked in the first post. If I understand correctly, this machine can be upgraded to OS X High Sierra.
