The serial numbers from this era are quite consistent - aside from some starting with "A". My (built in 1972 for the 1973 model year) Competition has capella lugs with a "G" serial.

I have a 1973 RRA (an H####) and also an International which both have the "correct" Nervex Professional lugs. Unquestionably, a lot of the 531 frames were made using capella lugs, but it wasn't consistent.
