Do you have the last three digits off the sticker? They are inked in blue usually.

Do you know how long the full production run was? Six months is not much time difference between oldest and youngest machine amongst us.

Production was only for about six months from what everyone has gathered. The history museum might have some official numbers.

72R DA 00031 143
83S DA 53211 163

Hey Karl, do you want to update your estimates of numbers produced from post #36 in this thread?  Maybe add current estimated totals to the main post?

All signs still point to less than 120,000 units. There are some gaps in the serials, however, I've never seen a serial begin with a 6 in the US for example, so there could be less than 100,000 units.
