New York motorists
were first issued this plate in 1973. It lasted until 1986. Beginning in 1973
registrations were updated with windshield stickers. Notice the difference in
the width of serial numbers on these plates. The left plate is from the original
73 dies. It would have been the one that was possibly utilized during 1976.
The right plate was issued well after 1976 and carries the 1980 dies.
