I would be interested in other serial numbers from your VMC 81's- generic or otherwise...maybe copy and paste and add your serial #'s
generic 81 - 102755 41 It's stamped very clearly- there was never a letter before the 41.
Orange Crush - 102410 F41- but this is a new plate and I'm assuming he had the plate stamped the same as the original
Pepsi 81 is - 102050 B41

looks like if there is a system to it then it would help spot the "fantasy" RC Cola 's

I think the generic is "F"... But the generic I have right now doesn't even have a letter in it...and it's the original tag.

I'm not an expert on serial numbers as every MFG. has different ways of doing them. The one thing I noticed is the first two and last two digits are common in the numbers provided. Then what I assume are embossed machines have the B designation except for the orange crush and the generic have either D,F or no letter. How many with the D were originally Dr Pepper machines? If they were painted at the factory for DR P. it might explain the D in the number. If no letter was in the number they might have just been purchased and painted by the soda distributor.
Just a guess

Interesting with the "D" analysis...... my Dr Pepper is a restored one, and the guy I bought it from had pictures of it in it's original state. The porcelin sign on my machine is the true sign to it.
So it very well could be that D was for the Dr Peppers and blanks were whatever the buyer wanted it to be at a later date.
It's all very confusing either way lol..... when I die, I want to meet my Grandparents, Elvis, and then the guy who came up with these serial numbers!!!! lol
