[QUOTE="Notaphylic_C, post: 24765354, member: 130786"]Awesome examples. Thanks for sharing & Congrats! But to a certain extent & only b/c nobody thought about special numbers back then. Don't forget that if you talking about a 5 digit serial number the odds of hitting a special number (like a solid radar - the example you've posted) is much higher than for a 6, 7 or 8 digit solid serial. And the 2 digit radar on the 4 digit serial is amazing (for the century old issue) but it is even easier to hit that combo still. GREAT notes (don't get me wrong) but you must take into account the # of digits on a serial number & that's one of the reasons the current 8 digit US FRN's can be so tough to find! Radars, repeaters, low # & ladders are so tough (& probably one of the reasons we keep seeing "trinaries & binaries" or "broken ladders" & wanna-be special - or fancy - serial numbers) on a 7 or 8 digit serial number. Amazing Confederate $50.00 with the cursive 12345 ladder # (+ EPQ grade)![/QUOTE]
