You've got some Georgia history there with those tags.
County codes were originally assigned according to county population. The list was revised for 1962 plates, based on the 1960 census. The county code system survives today, but as an internal "office code" for the counties. The latest evidence in plates was as late as the 1997 issuance of the "...on my mind" base plates, as initial distributions of plates were based on the office numbers (in reverse), with Echols County (#159) receiving "AAA" series, and Fulton County (#1) receiving most of the "Mxx" series plates.

The first number was the county assigned by the number of registered vehicles. Such as Dekalb = 2 (1962-1970). Previously it was 3 (1957-1961). Chatham held #2 from 1957-1961.
The same with Putnum (1957-1961) and Lumpkin (1962-1970) for your 122 tag.

I bet I've got 300 tags. Used to go to junk yards and pull them off of cars to make birdhouse roofs or even make repairs in garage walls where the squirrels would find a way in. The grand kids want to take them to the aluminum recycler so they can have some spending money.

Interesting information. Thank you for sharing.

Was at a store in Providence yesterday and found some that reminded me of this thread.

Haven’t seen any movement in here. Hope people don’t get to mad that I cut up a bunch of plates for this. For those who know me I also collect Hot Wheels. Saw a sign someone made from plates that had their name on it and thought I would make one myself that said hot wheels for a room I keep my collection in. Was originally going to abbreviate it to make it the same size as a regular plate but didn’t like it. So added the rest.
Still have to post this in the hot wheels thread
