How olds my bike?

According to Mario Colombo's book,The Complete History, the
police and military NF's had frame numbers from NF 00 AA to
frame NF 99 GH.
I don't know how this system works but my bike must be an early
one,with frame number NF 04 AT
My frame is also stamped DGM 63570M
Does anyone know how the system works?

Hello, my name is Vince, and I just introduced myself on the
relevant section of the forum;
The numbering sistem of the NF is very simple; it starting from
NF 00 AA and continue with NF01AA , NF 02 AA
untill NF 99 AA ( and every hundred bikes change the
alphabetical letter) the next will be NF 00 AB and so on till
NF 99 AB ,in this way continued NF 00 AC ...etc;till the last
number; with this sistem you can made an estimation how hold is
your bike;
To know the exact date of production the best way is to ask the
Certificate of Origine to Piaggio via the Moto Guzzi site it
cost approx 90 € if I remember well;
Regards,
Vince

I had thought this was how it works,but this cannot explain how
the last bike made was NF 99 GH.

I'm not an expert in mathematic but I suppose that when the
second letter of the series is reaching the NF99AZ
than the first letter moving to NF 00 BA till is reaching NF 99
GH ;
NF - two numbers (00 to 99) - two letters (AA to GH);
Every 100 numbers, change a letter (AA, AB, .... AZ, BA etc.).
( remind that 13400 NF Military have been produced)
Hoping that this will help you in order to know how many bikes
were produced before your NF, bearing in mind that the italian
alphabet do not foreseen letter J -K-W- X- Y ;)

Thanks Vince
My black military is 39 AB and the engine is stamped in three
places as follows:
1. front left main casing at sump level 86
2. front right main casing at sump level A 86 tho the (A) looks
a little different in the depth of the marking ???
3. front of the right side (clutch) casing 86 next to the small
passage drilling
I don't know if the engine numbers mean anything or are just a
matching method on assembly.
This is probably a very early frame 139th if the method is
good.
I do not know a great deal about it except that Leo Tamers
tells me he believes it was the daily ride for his long time
mechanic. The bike has been repainted black with white
pinstriping and has a transfer on the rear mudgaurd under the
top coat of paint (KONINKLIJKE MARECHAUSSEE) The Dutch Military
Police.
I purchased it with Leo's help from the decease estate and
shipped it to Australia 18 mths ago

Hi Contractor,
first of all , congratulation for your NF,
it is correct , with the number NF 39 AB, yours it is the moto
nr.139 produced; ;)
The motor block number is consisting on the letter A followed
with sequential numbers XXXX and is not matching with the frame
number;
Enjoy your NF
Kind regards
Vince
