Small numerals of the 2nd nomenclature
The post office of DUNKERQUE used 4 redesigned large numerals that had been redesigned.
The first is distinguished from the normal by its wider digits and a very arched 4.
The second differs from the normal in that the 6 has a more open head and the 4 has a higher horizontal bar.
From 1870 onwards, this redesigned large numerals had almost "square" digits.
The third is distinguished by its very characteristic flat-headed numeral 3. The 3 has little or no point at the end of the head and its loop is more open. In addition, the 1 is shifted to the left.
The fourth resembles (because of the 3) the previous one, but it has a point at the end of the head and a loop that is more closed at the top. The 6 seems to lean towards the 3.
