Got this last week but I'm not sure of the age. Also what is the plate pictured used for?    ------------- Life is tough,but it's tougher when you're stupid. - John Wayne |

That plate on top is a soybean plate. It looks to be well worn.
------------- If it was fun to pull in LOW gear, I could have a John Deere. Real pullers don't have speed limits. If you can't make it GO... make it SHINY |

Plate adapter is in the chamber. Dad had an early 333 (I think) no til planter so I'm familiar with everything but the bean plate because we never planted them ------------- Life is tough,but it's tougher when you're stupid. - John Wayne |

late 50 early 60's 100 series unit - note the depth lever. Would have to go back in a book to find the fertilizer opener system - can you say quadra disc? These unit had seed firmers - thought Keeton invented them eh?- The California special even had dual closing wheel option - thought Deere invented them huh? The seed disc is a 310992 - it will be stamped in the bottom - useless today as it has too large a seed cell - call Lincoln Ag they have plates although no seed corn is graded - this is where this plate - probably a B-24 -came from. Cool pic. ------------- When told "it's not the money,it's the principle", remember, it's always the money.. |

That bean plate looks like it was used to plant gravel. ------------- It's the color tractor my grandpa had! |
