ITEM DETAILS

• State: Idaho

• Year: 1948

• Plate Number: 7C 181 FR

• County Code: 7C

• Region: Custer County

• Class: FR Farm Truck

• Metal: Aluminum

• Design: The material is historically significant for this specific plate. In the late 1940s, the vast majority of U.S. states were still stamping license plates out of heavy steel. Steel shortages from World War II even forced some states to temporarily use cardboard or fiberboard.

Idaho was a distinct exception. In 1948, the state intentionally chose unpainted, raw aluminum because it would not rust. Aluminum composition is an Authenticity Marker; because Experienced collectors filter out fake or plastic replicas by searching for "aluminum" or "metal" plates.
