I've been lucky enough to purchase some LC-631 for my collection over the years. They're not the most expensive tubes I own, but they're definitely at the top in terms of rarity. It's a shame Meratronik didn't use LC-631 instead of Z566M, which are now abundantly sold after being removed from those old voltmeters.
