What makes you believe that the bodies started at 1,000,000? Just in my
small sample of bodies right now, I have a 390xxx, 610xxx, 428xxx and
615xxx. All OM-1 or OM-2, so I am not sure where the OM-3 started, but.
My OM-3 is 1008xxx, so you can assume 8000 or more.
I see the OM-3Ti as more collectable, eventually, then the OM-3.
