Variants 1 and 3 matrix notes:
On side A (referred to as side 1) of both variants 1 and 3 only "SLPS·9370·B1" is stamped and everything else is etched. The letter "S" stamping is etched out making it look like a dollar symbol and the replacement letter "I" is etched above.
On side B (referred to as side 0) of variant 1 only "ILPS·9370·A2" is stamped and everything else is etched.
On side B (referred to as side 0) of variant 3 only "ILPS·9370·A1" is stamped and everything else is etched.
Variants 4, 5 and 6 matrix/runouts notes:
On side 1(A), "$ILPS·9370·B1" is stamped and everything else is etched. Except from the V, that seem to be formed from three dots in a triangle shape, not sure if its a logo or actual the letter V (variant 4), and C (variants 5 and 6).
On side 0(B), "ILPS·9370·A1" is stamped and everything else is etched except from the C (variant 4) and B (variants 5 & 6).
