You could get a good idea about the Rolleicord evolution and models here: http://johnsrolleionlypage.homestead.com/Rolleicords.html I disagree with some data in the site but they are minor details. About the serial numbers, this is a good page for the Rollei TLR including the Rolleicord: http://home.worldonline.dk/rongsted/Rolleisn.htm The last Rolleicord Vb model has the Compur shutter 00 size model XV, the M synchro was eliminated, there are other cosmetic differences to identify version 1 and version 2, f.e the front plate version 1 engraved "F&H, Braunschweig", version 2 "Rollei Werke, Franke & Heidecke", some authors distinguish the type 3 for the Vb whiteface, however the versions are only two for Prochnow, he includes the grey Vb Phillips oscillograph dedicated model and the "Polizei" model within the version 1 and the white face within the version 2.
