Montana 1996 License Plate -- Ravalli County -- 13 9916C

“Very Good+ as per ALPCA guidelines.”


First of all this plate complies with Ebay’s rules since it has expired over 3 years ago (both year AND month are considered) and is not a design that can currently be used on the road. This is sold for collection, display or craft purposes only, not for a vehicle.
Secondly, this IS the plate that you will receive – not one with a different serial number or “similar to” the one scanned.
This is a 1996 stickered 1991 passenger base. The condition is Very Good+, refer to the picture. The 13 prefix of the serial number indicates that it was for a passenger vehicle in Ravalli County (Hamilton is the county seat).
What man cave, bar or diva den would be complete without an Montana Big Sky plate on the wall?
You might ask why are Montana plates somewhat difficult to find: (1) the population base is small at 0.9 million (2) there are 1120 vehicles registered per 1,000 residents (3) it is one of 31 states to issue plates as pairs (4) therefore Montana plates are only 0.57% of the plates issued in the US each year. Additionally residents of Montana have a tendency to not move out of state. So unless you are in Montana or one of the surrounding states you just do not see them on the road with much degree or regularity.
Shipping to the US is either $3.90 for a first class package or $5.60 for priority mail. Yes, I will combine multiple winnings into one package. I will ship worldwide; natch the postage will be not the same.
If you have any questions or comments just contact me.
I am retired and ship PDQ when your payment arrives. I prefer PayPal.
The first plate that I sold on Ebay was on 12-17-96, so I have been around the block a time or two.
