84/98 I 1941 (Elite Diamant)

As Andy mentioned, really like that serial number! I have a 42ffc # 9b and don't think I have ever seen more than one or two other S84/98 T3s with single-digit serials. Unfortunately my bayonet came in a T2 scabbard which was utilized elsewhere, so have looked for something suitable ever since to replace it with.
Yes, in this case it could be either "0001 b" or "1b"...may depend on what type of stamping equipment (manual or automatic) the manufacturer may have been using to apply the serial numbers.

Hey Buddy, is that an E/4 in your pocket?
Love the 41 Diamante bayonets... I have matching # 5160a , though mine was used as a "hammer" at some point and the end is all beat up so the bayo lug button will not depress now. Blade was sharpened too but I love the code. Paid $25 for it as it sits. The frog has an unusual marking I have never seen before that looks simply like this.......... A(8) .... that's it.
