I read somewhere that it was all CAS* and CAT* plates, that were run in the facility that makes the plates for Nova Scotia. Apparently they use the same font.

k, confirmed i am not crazy.
One of my plates falls in this category and the font looked different and smaller compared to others. I thought it's possibly my OCD playing tricks on me.

I'm sure my custom plate would be peeling by now, but since it's never on the road. My custom plate falls within the same series of plates as that's when I got it.

LOL probably gonig to go for the red on black leather/alcantra tlx aspec, just deciding if i want to pick it up soon and beat it through the winter or wait until spring.
i'm going balls out on protecting it, as soon as i get it not going to let acura touch the car, going to clay/polish/seal/opticoat parts/PPE parts then of course the suspension and wheels will move over.
