	SMOM Plates

	LICENSE PLATES ON LINE! .... Tristan da Cunha
		This is a new series of plates, due to be phased in when the need arises, although with so few motor vehicles actually bearing registration plates on TDC, it's not known when these plates may actually come into use.
		I've seen embossed issues as low as number 3, and have had embossed plates in my collection, numbered T.D.C 38 and T.D.C. Rumours that the plexiglass TDC plates are fake are erroneous, and I have multiple letters received directly from the Administrator of Tristan that verify this.
		It's doubtful that any "hand painted" flat TDC plates are authentic, and should probably be considered "island handicrafts" by collectors, even if they appear to have been used.

		Shanghai's licence plate auction is authorized by a local vehicle administration regulation passed by the city's congress a decade ago.
