I'd honestly be surprised if those are widely employed, because they're damn near useless. There's well over 200 varieties of license plates issued in Oklahoma by the state. Most of the tribes also have issuing authority and often have multiple varieties of plates themselves (these can get quite nuanced, for example, a disabled Cherokee veteran plate replaces the tribe's seal with the coat of arms, with the flags of the Cherokee Nation and the country (even if not US) they served for. Not all of these plates stick to strictly characters found on a US English keyboard, either (some varieties of Cherokee plates also have no English on them, though the number may have English characters). Do they give change? Otherwise how do you know how much to prepay? > Yes, typically.
