Pre-Encoded Ticket numbering

Page last modified/checked: Tuesday, 16 April 2002
I have broken this section into three parts corresponding to the three different prefixes so far found on the pre-encoded issues.
The 127 01002 and 127 1002 types are both shown in the 127 01002 list.
Where possible, examples from each 100,000 range of numbers are listed. Dates of issue are not shown as it is impossible to say when the individual tickets were distributed to the retail outlets, nor how long they may have lingered on shelves or in drawers before finally being sold. As a general guide, the dates of the earliest known use of a particular type will be found in the "fronts" section of this site. I did not include designators or specific descriptions of any designs, as I would have had to list basically every ticket issued !!

127 01002 numbering

127 01003 numbering



As from 16th April 2002, the separate Magnadata International pre-encoded listing has been discontinued. These issues are now found in the 127 01003 series in their proper numerical sequence.

As you may well understand, the sheer size of this task is solely based on the ticket examples we are lucky enough to find. Suffice to say, the listings given above show the sequences the tickets were printed in - enough to give a basic knowledge of this process. Accordingly, this section of the site is no longer being updated.
