For most parts, the number stamped in the part is a general number -- it
applies to the part, in any color. The actual part numbers used by TLC are a
combination of the general number and a color code.
This part is unusual, because the number stamped on it (71014) only applies to
the part with the silver plating/chroming applied. If TLC decided to make a
gold-chromed version of this part, they would use a different number.
Releasing 71014.dat as an uncoloured part would be inaccurate, so I renamed
your file to 59.dat, and created 71014.dat as a shortcut file.

| Steve, I found a possible error in the update. The Minifig Sword Greatsword was released as part # 59. I submitted it as part # 71014. (I got that number from the part itself, inside the pommel.) What happened? Franklin (25 years ago, 30-Sep-00, to lugnet.cad)
