The plate is either a SENGH name related plate or a SINGH name related plate. As most people know the number 3 is seen as the letter E in registration terms and it doesn&#8217;t really have a resemblance to the letter I. However, the plate 51 NGH sold at auction in 2006 with a hammer price of \u00a3201,000 and this may have been a pull factor in establishing the high price for 53 NGH. Yet again there are three Number 1 Dateless Plates in the Top 10 by value and these were topped by 1 NGX with a hammer price of \u00a329,990 which is a value of \u00a338,507. Second place in this auction was filled by a Toy plate in the shape of 8 TOY &#8211; no doubt destined for a super car. Three by one dateless single letter plates are continuing in popularity and this auction saw three of these formats in the Top 10 &#8211; by value. It would be fair to say that the biggest surprise was in the dateless number 2 VSS reaching\u00a0 its hammer price of \u00a318,330 and reaching the last position in the Top 10.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The latest DVLA Auction held in April 2022 saw the top plate by value reach a hammer price of \u00a361,010 which is a cash value of \u00a378,337.
