Ehhhm...
Oh I'm sorry, my fault...
"No trinangle: pilot lot" Is right
"(rare tube)" - is wrong.
Sorry, mixed it up with another tube sort.

Whoah, thats really interesting! I have about 20 tubes with no
triangle, 5 with triangle but with no number in it and 2 that have
another number instead of the triangle! Guess im lucky? Here is a

The triangle is a very very important sign for Nixie tube collectors.
in short:
No trinangle: pilot lot (rare tube)
"1" in triangle: quality category 1 (best quality)
"2" in triangle: quality category 2 (low quality)
"=" in triangle: bad tolerances (only for no-name products ect.)
"S" in triangle: special release

There are some more interesting signs - I will explain later in a special
article in cooperation with Jens.

btw, do you know why some of the Z566M tubes has the yellow triangle
with round corners stamped at back? Does it mean something or its just
sign of earlier/later series?
