Thanks Blair,
at the current moment, I do not have enough examples
to compliment your research
but I'll keep it for the future.
The first image you link, may illustrate the
"grey paper" issue Chris was talking about.

SG has 37 + 7 sub numbers, not including imperfs and grey paper.

2 and 5pi values may have small or large numerals in both Arabic and
Roman type. 1pi may have the Roman numeral slanting.

Note that the first two have big numerals and the third small ones.
