## About this plate

THE PLAIN NUMERIC CAR SERIES, up to four digits and nothing else. The original and still the most common Monegasque plate. Its exhaustion is what drove the two lettered grammars below, and AM 2013-44's own title says so: "en vue de l'augmentation du nombre de numéros d'immatriculation".

## About its years

15 May 1978, AM 78-5 art. 11.
