Dan, those "special" numbers rarely end up in the hands of an ordinary
Leica user (if such users exist at all). Numbers like that are either
sold to the highest bidder or presented to a usually bloody ignorant
person. See Paul-Henry van Hasbroeck's book "Leica, a history
illustrating every model and accessory".
