  COCA COLA CUP 2002                  
                       
With the disappearance of expiry dates on Telkom phonecards, it is once again difficult to determine the different    
printings of these phonecards especially when the Coca Cola card were issued          
On a cursory examination it seems that the different printings can be identified with the authority codes      
170, 171, 172, 173, 174 and 175 at the beginning of the control numbers. However scrutiny of the control numbers reveal that   
there are gaps in the control numbers with the authority code 174 indicating additional printings.      
All cards have the Solaic SO3 chip and the open zero Arial font of the normal 7 dot print
