Hi all.
So I got this C64 that I bought last week, and something strange caught my eyes. It has no official product sticker on the back.
You know... The one that has the model name, ratings and serial number stamped on a big square sticker.
Instead it has a serial number on a rectagulair sticker. That looks like it has been there from the start.
The sticker does not look like it has been removed and replaced, it is set a bit off wich do not look that "commodorish" like.
The case has not been opened before, as the seal is still intact on my machine.
And there is no resedue from a previous normal rectangulair sticker. Hmm.... What gives?

The machine that I have:

- C64-C
- New board (have checked for the fuse alignment through the port)
- New keyboard, wich is correct for the board model
- Model sticker in the bottom right corner (no molded product name)
- Green power-led, not red.

To clear it further up, I have added some pictures to my question.

That's mine.

So what was the question? There are many variants.

"Ser.-No." is a very German way of abbreviating an English word. I wonder if this was common to German-built 64s?
