Keep in mind:
The photographs below are only meant to show the design of the plates that are for sale. They are not intended to show the condition of the plates. The plates shown in the photographs may or may not be a photo of the actual plate that is for sale!! If a plate number is listed in the description then the picture shown is the actual plate for sale. Otherwise the plate(s) for sale will be the same design but may have a different plate number.
To see an explanation of grading terms used go to the page on license plate grading terms. This page includes links to several other pages with photographic examples of each grading term most license plate collectors use.
This page is organized as follows: The top section lists plates from jurisdictions outside the United States and Canada (if I have any). Below these are plates from the 13 jurisdictions of Canada (if I have any). Below the section on Canada are plates from the 51 jurisdictions of the United States (including the District of Columbia). For each jurisdiction ordinary standard-issue plates for privately-owned passenger cars are listed first, then non-passenger or specialty plates (such as truck, trailer, taxi, environmental, college, etc.). If nothing is listed from a place you're looking for that means I don't have a plate from there. If a particular state or section gets too long I may break it off onto a seperate page. In such cases a link will be shown where that jurisdiction would normally fall.
Interested in anything? E-mail me at 
Please note! I work out of state for long periods of time so may not be able to answer e-mail very quickly. |

Beginning in 1994 (for 1995 expirations) Texas began issuing a windshield sticker to validate most types of plates rather than a plate sticker. Because of this all passenger and truck plates issued since then have no plate stickers. However since Texas assigns plates to the counties in numerical order the year of issue can be determined within a year or two by the plate number. For undated passenger and truck plates validated by a windshield sticker I have noted the most likely year of first expiration along with the letter series of the plate. For example, passenger plate number 329*YRZ was most likely a 2007 issue, with the plates issued with a windshield sticker expiring in 2008. This would be noted as Y series - x2008 or Y-x08. |
