- THE TWO-LETTER PREFECTURE SERIES. Recorded as a deliberate gap rather than authored from folklore.
- About the format
- Whether the fourteen-letter restriction already applied in 1972 is unknown, and whether the digits ran 1000-9999 or from 1 is unknown. A match here means "this string has a shape Greece is reported to have issued" and nothing more.
