There are some extremely scarce unframed date stamps both U1 and U2 types ( and the only U3, Hamilton)
If you have any examples you might be prepared to show them here so we can gradually build up a database.
To start the ball rolling here is the rare Westbury rated RRRR in the John Hardinge listings.

Havn't a lot to add bar another Westbury U1 that I just acquired. Appears to be from top right hand corner of a Letter bill.
