Denmark/Danmark booklet query

I recently acquired a charmer of a complete booklet, Scott 530a (complete
booklet), the 1973-11-28 Danish Fresco intaglio issue of 10x 70 ores
stamps in five designs.

In the paste-down selvage at the pane's left border (with the top
oriented up), there is a number (11453) inscribed that does not appear to
be in one of the printing colors. Is this a plate, sequence, or other
accounting number, or does it serve some other purpose? If this number
can vary, is there a reference that lists the possible numbers?

I have a feeling this is a question for one of our lurkers to answer.

Best,

I cannot post a scan of the number without creasing or disassembling the
booklet. I'm linking to scans of the cover, and a photo taken with my
mobile phone of the interior (when I get new batteries for my digital
camera today, I should be able to get a clearer picture in "macro mode",
but you can barely make out the "11453" at the bottom of the pane now --
that will help at least for placement of what I'm talking about.)

Best,

Joshua,
this is the so-called imprinting (production) number of the issue as such.
If you ask the Danish philatelic newsgroup, http://news.dk.fritid.filateli,
you will receive a more precise answer, which I am unable to compose in
English at the moment. Although mainly in Danish language, you can post in
English and will receive an abswer in English. The booklet was engraved by
Czeslaw Slania, http://www.slaniastamps-heindorffhus.com

Mette (Denmark)

Indeed, welcome back, and thank you for your answer. I will follow up on

Thanks again,
