I have never seen a Longbranch other than the one I'm holding (same as in the picture) with a 5 digit number following the "L" only a maximum of 4 digits after the "L". Did they not go from 0L9999, then to 1Lx, 1Lxx, 1Lxxx, 1L9999 then 2Lx, 2Lxx and so on. It's a mystery.
Sorry in my original post I put the serial # as 0Lxxxx where as it should have read 0Lxxxxx.
