So that change (and probably for other coil models as well) happend somewhere in the year 1952.

The Bosch sticker is the early type with just "BOSCH" on it, later it got "BOSCH", "6 Volt" and "GERMANY IMPORTE D'ALLEMAGNE".

Reviving this old thread.

I'm considering restoring this old blue coil, and running it on my Okrasa, but I can't figure out what it came on. Everything I see has the TK6 A3 as a black coil. Anyone have any info?

TE6A3 thread:
https://www.thesamba.com/vw/forum/viewtopic.php?t=101975

They are not blue though.

It looks like a date code of M.
M = 1956

Bosch coils from 1947 bosch parts book. Not vw specific but thought it could be interesting for some to add it here.

Note the differens for TE6/3 and TE6/1 is that the later have connection 16.
