Antique Vehicle

FORMAT 7: A00A to current high

According to Steve Moskowitz, the holder of plate A00A, the graphic is a 1920 Oldsmobile Model 37 Roadster Applications for an antique tag received after 1/31/05 get the new style plate, or a purple plate holder can replace that plate for $7.50 and a completed MV-44.  All new plates will be in the A00A format - no reissues will be done of existing numbers.  The new series began with A00A.

Note that the characters spacing has been shifted to the right on later plates.

 

 

Note that some plate holders place an image of their own vehicle over the image on the plate.  This plate to the right is also the new current high.  In PA the use of the letters O and Q in the first position would have been skipped.

Street Rod (1982)

FORMAT 1: 0000S/R to 3999S/R

First issued 1981, type still in use.

Pennsylvania and STREET ROD use a bold font.  The top red stripe is thinner than the bottom one.  Actually the red stripes on the earliest plate don't extend to the right plate border.  It is not known if this is part of the earliest format or something peculiar to this plate.  Some plates have validation stickers.

 

FORMAT 2: 4000S/R to 4999S/R

Pennsylvania and STREET ROD use a bold font.  Both red stripes are the same thickness but don't extend to the border.  Most plates use validation stickers.

FORMAT 3: 5000S/R to current high

Pennsylvania and STREET ROD have been changed to a lighter weight font.  The top red stripe is again thinner than the bottom one and extends to the border.  Almost all plates have validation stickers.

Bus

Type not current but with current sticker.  Both of these older plates are on busses owned by legitimate bus companies. The continued use of a few older yellow-on-blue bus plates remains a mystery. 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

FORMAT 1: BA10000 to BA47999 without the dash separator.  When PA re-plated in 2000, all bus plates were reissued on a plate-for-plate basis. This included anything between BA-10000 to BA-47999.  The replacement plates in this series on the www base did not use the dash separator. Low number spotted BA28644.

 

FORMAT 2: BA-48000 to BA-59999 have dash separators

 

 

 

FORMAT 3: BA-60000 to current high on visitPA base, keystone separator.

MISCELLANEOUS PLATES

Amateur Radio

FORMAT 1: On www base, FCC Call Sign, beginning with A, K, N, or W.  Most PA Amateur Radio plates use the number 3 to designate the region.  The N0XOH call letter is used by someone who brought an existing call sign into PA when they moved.  The call letter is N0(zero)XOH.  In PA the number fonts are larger than the letters.  It's hard to distinguish this on the photo.  The WD5 call is the same situation.

 

 

 

 

 

If an owner desires a second Amateur Radio plate, it will be issued with the call sign plus a hyphen and the number two (-2).

Passenger (visitPA base)

FORMAT 2: GBA-0000 to current high

This image represents a revision to the www base and is similar in design to the new specialty plates.  PennDOT confirmed on 12/15/04 that they were planning to begin using the new visitPA.com base in place of the www.state.pa.us base on all plate types where the web address was normally used.  One source suggests they were first issued on 12/22/04.

Passenger - old base

This plate type should have been replaced by 8/02, but is still in use with a 5/06 validation sticker.

 

Here is another plate from an later base than the one above but still wearing a current validation sticker.  Seen 9/16/06.

 

 

This plate, which was just recently replaced, had a valid registration card which did concur with the plate number. Somehow it missed getting replaced way back when. The answer many have something to do with the purchase of a new vehicle in 2001 and this yellow-on-blue plate being issued rather than a www base plate.

Passenger - re-make of old bases

Re-Makes of 1977 Keystone State Base, yellow on blue. Plate could be 6-digit numeric or 5-digit with an alpha character in the 1st, 2nd or 6th position.

 

Note use of keystone separator.

 

 

 

 

Re-Make of 1983 You've Got a Friend Base

Originally issued starting in 1983 with the series HAA-000 to RZZ-999

 

 

Re-Make of 1987 Keystone State Base

Originally issued starting in 1987 with the series SAA-000 to ZZZ-999

 

 

Re-Make of 1991 Keystone State Base

Originally issued starting in 1991 with the series AAA-0000 to CEE-????.  Owner requested to keep old number on new base.  This then makes the plate a personalized plate.  However, note the use of a keystone separators in place of the dash separator.

Passenger Vanity (www base)

FORMAT 1: Up to 7 characters, one space or dash permitted but not both.

At least two 8-digit plates have been confirmed ("HUMPBACK" and "MCERLANE").  At least the latter, if not both, have been recalled by PennDOT.

The GJS-MSON is actually an invert error plate.  Note the second S is upside down.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Passenger Vanity (visitPA base)

FORMAT 2: This plate with its visitPA.com tagline, represents a departure from the www base.  It is similar in design to the Specialty Plates except for the 'tag line'. 12/04

 

The plate to the right is actually reads 7 and the letter O, not seventy (70).  Letter characters are smaller than numbers.  The state coat of arms was added by the owner.

Sample Mystery Type

Information from Bruce Bufalini:

Image taken September 22, 2001, at the University of  Pittsburgh, Greensburg campus. The plate was on the front of a DEP (Dept. of Environmental Protection)-owned car. There was some sort of conference there held by the DEP, and at the time I had theorized that there was a DEP prefix plate series reserved for them, though I've never seen another such plate, sample or real issue, before or since.

These two plates, along with the current Conserve Wild Resources (RC) River Otter plate, were candidates to replace the previous Conserve Wild Resources (WR) Saw Whet Owl plate.  The upper plate shows the bald eagle and the lower one is the peregrine falcon.  See respective plates above for more information.

 

 

 

The 'wildlife' plate to the right never made it either, it appears to be another variety of the resource conservation prototypes, however, it could also be a Hunting Angling (HA) plate.  If anyone knows more about this plate, please share with us.

MADE UP FARM EXEMPTION PLATES

from Andrew Pang

This is not an official plate, but something the owner made up, or had made up, to avoid being stopped for having no plate.  PennDOT issues Plate Exemption Stickers (which go on the side of the vehicle near the driver’s door) for certain farm trucks and these do not require a plate. 

 

This is another example of a  plate used to indicate that the vehicle has a farm vehicle registration exemption.
