## About this plate

SAMMARINESE RED CROSS. The red-on-white scheme is shared with no other current San Marino series.

## About its years

Unusually, this series is created by the ENABLING ACT itself rather than by a decree under it, Legge 23/1989 art. 13, which otherwise deals with where plates are mounted.

## Format notes

Legge 23/1989 art. 13: vehicles of the Croce Rossa Sammarinese entered in a dedicated register carry plates on the Decreto 151/1986 model "con i numeri di immatricolazione e la sigla CRS di colore rosso." Both the sigla AND the digits are red, unlike the diplomatic series where only the sigla is. No digit count is stated; \d{1,3} is a practical bound.
