Serial Number Stamp Design

[BriRosen]

Morning All,

My uncle has recently brought a 1964 Dextra (not sure if it's a super) that he's trying to date for the v5,
However some helpful soul in the past has all but removed the last 2 digits of the serial number with some over enthusiastic rubbing
down !
A very small portion of the numbers remains but not enough for a positive identification without some point of reference.
Does anyone know what style font was used on the stamps or where I can find examples ?

Regards
Bri

They must have been rubbing pretty hard to remove the numbers. This might help but if you find the casting codes on all the cast parts you can get a pretty good idea of the date of the tractor.



Another point might be that if she is an early tractor she could have anything from a three figure to a five figure number up to 1960

Cheers Brian, think someones taken a grinder to the last 2 numbers & only left us with a few tantalizing fragments !
We've got the start of the number as 09D9223 so fairly sure she's a '64, will try & post a picture later to see if anyone can work it out !
Regards Bri
