  • Commonwealth Barred Numeral Type 2 b (7.5 mm) is rated 5R
Ayrshire Downs date stamp type 3c HERE. Ayrshire Downs registered HERE

This numeral is often confused with 346. The best way to distinguish 546 from the more common 346 is that the former has 4 bars in the middle while the latter has only 3. Also the top of the 6 in 346 is more rounded
