More from Derreck:  About the end of the PV series some plates showed up using PZZ. Not sure if some plates are reserved for the alternate P series? It looks like there has been a continuation of the series.  PWL6116 was spotted in Gwinnett Co. and PWR1316 was spotted in Cherokee Co.  PXM was spotted in Columbia Co.

Notes from Joshua Jobe:

I have observed several CADxxxx plates of the new design that are lower than serials observed on the old embossed GEORGIA.gov base.  I don't know whether the state had blocks of plates manufactured on the old base that they never issued and remade those on the new base, or if the CAQ vicinity plates were made out of sequence.  Regardless, it will be interesting to see if the P-series plates were among the first made, and after that supply is extinguished, if the numbers continue on from CARxxxx and up.  Why they jumped all the way to PAA instead of just to DAA is beyond me.  Note on that CADxxxx plate that the renewal sticker has modified type with smaller county name and larger plate serial and month name printed on the sticker.  Finally, also note that the county name on the new flat plates is printed in the same manner as the serial.  Only the "In God We Trust" legend is applied as a sticker.  The county tag agents must love not having to stick a county sticker on every single plate now.

Notes from ALPCA 8615:  CASxxxx has been observed. P-series plates were a temporary place-holder. Unissued white-base plates were recalled and returned numbers were produced by 3M (i.e. CAD, CAE series). The "proper" highs should now revert to C-series plates. (technically all CAD, CAE, etc. are higher than any P-series since they were produced after.) It is mixed up now because 3M is probably mailing out P-series, while county tag offices are issuing C-series directly. Full-graphic plates are automatically replacing all 1998 "on my mind" bases (mailed-in renewals only). Large county-name stickers are direct mailed plates from 3M; smaller county-name stickers are issued through the county tag office - it is the difference in printers.

Derreck Cole confirms CAS, CAT, CAU, and CAV.  He also confirms POA, POB, and POC, but nothing after until PPA.  Derreck Cole reports CBI9021 on 2013-10-08.
