But that's new pence Gordon. If the frame was stamped the numbers are still there. Here's a little forensic technique that works most of the time. Sand the area (Fine Sandpaper,Do not grind) down to bright metal. apply a weak acid solution like old battery electrolyte to the general area with a 2" brush. let it set 1/2 to 3/4 of an hour and then rinse it off with water (no soap). Coat the area with a spray starch . The starch should highlight the serial number in relief, black light will make it show up better.
