Default trim tag question

on cars ordered with the "special" paint, what would the trim tag say?

every example I have seen says "SPEC" where the paint code would normally be. There is a 72 local to me claiming to have been delivered in primer, however the trim tag actually says "SPECIAL" I had not seen it spelled out before

Tiger Joe, I have seen "SPEC", "SPECIAL", and "SPC" in my travels.

This trim tag pic is from Robert's '73 documented Black car.

Please post a pic of the trim tag you observed.
