I read about someone else claiming to have s/n 1. After researching some more he found the real serial number. I guess that 1 is a casting code of some kind. Serial numbers on Ford tractors of the 50's were stamped, not cast. Jubilee serial numbers all start with "NAA" followed by the number. Here's a link that will show you the correct location of the serial number. Warning: since these numbers were hand stamped, some of them are very nearly illegible. I guess toward the end of the shift, the guy hammering the numbers got a little tired because some serial numbers are very weakly struck. There certainly must have been a first Jubilee and it should have serial number "NAA1", but I'm not ready to believe your b-i-l owns it until I see a photo of the s/n in the correct location. More valuable? Maybe, from a curiosity standpoint. Might make it more desireable to a Ford museum. I kind of suspect s/n 1 got used around the Ford factory as a test mule and never got shipped to a dealer, but I have no evidence of that.
