SS identification help

[CzechCzar]

So my RAD is winding down, and I notice something dismaying: there is a growing hole in my wallet. I only plan on cycling between a few razors in my collection, having decided on my favorites, and would like to sell some Gillette Super Speeds on B/S/T. However, I can not for the life of me figure out where everybody gets the date code from the bottom. Would someone mind taking a close-up photo of where, exactly the date code is, so I can have some idea of where to look?

THANKS!

I got this from the wiki earlier today: http://wiki.badgerandblade.com/index.php/Image:B3_SS_2.jpg

Look just above the corners of the diamond on the underside of the base plate.

This one reads B3.

This one is C2

Or sometimes it's just inside the corners of the diamond: V3

And from a sale thread on the BST recently:

The "A" is obscured by camera flash, but the "2" is clearly visible on the right hand side.
