Can anyone tell me when this South Australian number plate would have been issued?

Black on white number plate - RCG-111?

I had RCW nnn on a 1969 Mini K. Not sure of the month, but it was the era with no compliance plate or ID plate.

Thanks all! That is excellent...I am guessing RCG plates are probably late 67 to early 68.

Hi,
Double checked my photos on the Mini K.
RCW is registered as a 1970, and does have a compliance plate.

My 68 minimatic was registered in SA with "RLK531" once upon a time, but I guess it might not necessarily be the first set of plates.

my grandfathers valiant 66 was ROY-966, so late 67-68 is a good guess for yours..

off topic - anyone ever sees a VC valiant in adelaide with plate above.. I wanna buy him back!
