About private number plate 3 DC
3 DC is a short, three character dateless registration, presented in the popular format of one number followed by two letters. The plate features the number 3, which is a standalone low number, often considered more distinctive than higher number sequences.
This registration works well for those with the initials DC, a combination that has strong popularity. The short format, with its fewer characters, typically produces a cleaner and more memorable registration.
The plate was released to the open market via DVLA auction in March 1992. It sold for £5,000 (hammer price). With auction fees, the estimated total paid by the buyer was £6,463.
Plate Circle brings together number plate history, value context, for sale listings, spotted records and verified sold-price history where available.
