## About this plate

THE MAIN SERIES: black ground, white script, FL plus an ascending number, binding to the Halter. Modelled as ONE continuous series from 1925 because the defining grammar, FL plus a number, allocated to the owner, has not changed since the 1924 decree; what changed across the century is dimensions, materials, the arms and the colour's legal basis, all of which are design facts carried above rather than new series.

## About its years

1925, NOT 1924, the instrument-date rule in its clearest form. The Vollziehungs-Verordnung is dated 4 December 1924 and was published on 6 December 1924, and its Art. 30 Abs. 1 is what mandates the FL plate. But the decree's own commencement clause reads "Diese Verordnung tritt am 1. Januar 1925 in Kraft." No FL plate could lawfully be issued under it before 1 January 1925.

## How numbers are issued

VZV Art. 73 Abs. 2, ascending order, with number spaces split per colour, per special marking and between the motorcar and motorcycle families. No date and no geography is encoded.

## Separators

The gap between FL and the digits is occupied by the SMALL STATE ARMS, not by punctuation (Art. 74 Abs. 1). On the Hochformat rear plate the digits sit on a second line instead.
