10 SJM private number plate

10 SJM is a dateless UK private registration with a five-character layout. The format uses two numbers followed by three letters, presenting the numbers first. This registration originates from Cheshire, with an issue period broadly associated with the circa 1953, 1963 window.

The SJM initials offer significant appeal to individuals with those names, making it a strong contender for personal name buyers. Such registrations are often sought after for their direct personal connection, a leading motivation for acquiring a private plate according to a 2019 DVLA survey.

Dateless registrations from this era are generally considered more desirable due to their historical significance and timeless aesthetic. The compact, five-character format of 10 SJM also contributes to its clean look and memorability, characteristics that tend to enhance collector interest. The number 10 falls within the 10-99 band, placing it below single-digit numbers in typical collector hierarchy, though the strength of the SJM initials may be a primary driver of appeal.

A historical sale of this registration occurred on 23 September 2016, with a hammer price of £21,600 and an estimated buyer total of £27,994.
