Like the 75A, there was a 51J.  Not many made but the next version was the 75A-1 and with the 51J it was the 51J-1.

Now I am curious.  Why would the dataplate say 51J-1? Wouldn't the first
bunch all be 51J's until there was a -2?  Like Gonset Communcators?  There
are Commincator II's III's even IV's, but only plain Communicators no
Communcator 1?

Unless 51J-1's and 51J-2's overlapped in production I would expect 51J's and
51J-2. Who knows for sure?

The tag says 51J-1 Serial No. 96.
