Do you know when these surfaced? Was this before or after 1957? Never seen a blank one.

Nick, very interesting threes. It maybe my imagination, I believe it looks like to styles of threes on that one cross. The obverse with a more compressed loop (bottom section of three) and the reverse 3 with a more bulbous loop.
Indeed! Also two different 9's, a strange 8 ....

They were made several years before 1957, the early examples are animal glued while the late ones are soldered. For more information, see here.

Looking for LDO marked EK2s and items relating to U-406.....
