Our collections of license plates

MajKeR_ · February 18th, 2012, 04:52 PM

As there's some interest in special thread about collecting license plates, I decided to begin it. Here we can show photos of our plates and collections, comment them, inform about searching and possibly find someone ready to exchange.

Let I start - these are plates I've sold two weeks ago. But don't cry - I know their new owner and he's reliable guy.

I hope moderators won't have any complaints to this thread.

Right now I have 14 plates in my collection. 3 from Canada, 1 from Mexico, 9 from USA and 1 from Spain. I will get more soon and in summer a friend of mine will drive to Macedonia and hopefully get some Macedonian plates for me

And none from Poland - if you get some new from Italy, we may make the exchange

Great pics Satyricon, love US designs. How many of those bases are still valid?

Satyricon84 · February 18th, 2012, 07:48 PM

I think none of them. Indiana replaces plates often

Paddington · February 18th, 2012, 09:01 PM

I got one a these on my car.

Note the DNA strand security imprint.

My italian truck trailer license plate

MajKeR_ · February 18th, 2012, 11:01 PM

How you can buy such one in Italy? I'm asking, because I've seen that these plates are popular also at "international" sets (e.g. truck from Romania + trailer from Italy).

Satyricon84 · February 18th, 2012, 11:13 PM

I think you can get from driving school or automobile club. It should cost around 50 euro if I'm not wrong. They give you a empty plate just with the R, then you have to get the stickers to put on it. This a probated license plate...in other places you can find a quite good reproduction for this plate. Just police usually don't see the difference between probated and not....

Satyricon84 · February 19th, 2012, 07:40 PM

One of the favourite in my collection: Alaska series 1976-1982

MajKeR_ · February 19th, 2012, 08:02 PM

It looks quite rare

Is condition of all your plates such good?

Satyricon84 · February 19th, 2012, 08:10 PM

Of course, they are almost all from VG to mint conditions. But as I said I only have 88 plates... there are some countries with is almost impossible to find mint or very good plates, for example Cuba or Haiti. You can find them, but they are quite expansive (So in future I think I'll have plates of poor quality). This german plate I have is a bit ruined in the borders, but it has the seal of the Kreis which usually german plates don't have when expired, so I got it the same cause it's rare

Paddington · February 19th, 2012, 09:11 PM

The Alaska one is badass.
