Earliest Columbia BE?

Looking at my BE today. The serial number is 76. Has the early weighted reproducer and the cabinet has the banner decal on the "wrong" side, which I believe is an early feature. So, anyone got a BE lower than 76? Not convenient for me post a photo right now, sorry.

I passed on one with a weighted reproducer, serial # in the 200's in an antique shop years ago. Never found an early one after that.

All the ones I have owned since have had 5 digit serial numbers.
