| 1 | 1782 | A | 120 | 230 | 350 | 500 | ? | - | |
| 2 | 1790 | L on point inside the ecu | 120 | 230 | 350 | 550 | ? | - | |
| 3 | 1790 | L two points inside the ecu | 120 | 230 | 350 | 500 | ? | - |
* 1790 I notice for this vintage, two variants. The first with a single point in the ecu, the second with two points, one on top of the other. I made a similar estimate for both variants, because it does not seem that one variant is more rare than the other (attention to the points erased, blocked dies...)
