How numbers are issued
Two different progressions on one arrangement, which is the detail that makes Utah's two Life Elevated designs distinguishable from the serial alone: on the SKIER base the serial ascends normally; on the ARCH base the FIRST LETTER PROGRESSES BACKWARDS (Z, then Y, then X ...). For both, the fifth and sixth positions are issued alphabetically AA to ZZ before the leading letter advances. Corroboration-grade.
