A handwriting one

What are the 1st and 4th digits of this number? I think “F”, but not certain.

Possibly 7.

Could be 7

I've seen 7's like that before!

Is it possibly a fancy 7? Some cultures use a strike through the centre.

Some cultures? Quite normal in the UK

Ah yes, could be 7. I strike through mine, but I have never seen such an upright 7. But 7 would make sense with everything else being a number.

F 7 or a T

Educated in Europe, 7s have a crossbar.

Definitely 7

Yea a French 7. I use them because my handwriting is appealing. (I don’t write them like that, though.)

Appalling, hopefully appealingly appalling.

7 especially as it's a number sequence

I quite often use a strike through my 7s.

In my youth, a 7 with a short bar across the middle was known as a continental 7, not very common in the UK, then, at any rate! I understood it to be a means of differentiating a written 1 and 7. I adopted it, as a pretentious teen, and have written it that way ever since, but only ever as a normal 7 with a little line across.

It's a 7 because you have an example of a 1 and a 4 which are the only other digits it could be, IMO.

7

I thought 7 too.

Continental and greengrocers!

It could feasibly be a combination of letters and numbers.

It’s a reference code for a piece of equipment, rather than a numerical value.

Anyway, I’m going with 7. I went to a French school, I cross my sevens, I should have seen it as a seven.

Continental and greengrocers!

Yes, you’re right! I do remember greengrocers writing their prices like that!
