Cheers Jerry
Thanks for responding.

That most definitely is a '0', but from the starboard picture, I just can't see the last digit being the same.

Especially comparing to the other zeros in the serial number, odd.

Possibly mismarked?

Come on guys there is a dark boarder, look at the images ..... what could be darker than black unless the interior colour was lighter, therefore I suggest red, Red 3 with a black border.

I don't really see it, even if it were there, it seems a bit too thin for an outlined marking.

That dark spot on the top of '3' is the panel seam, even all of the other photos I have access to indicate a single colour.
