The letters AB in the dead wax aren't really part of the matrix/runout numbers, as they're in fact the abbreviation that indicates Abbey Record Manufacturing Co., Inc. pressing plant.
The hand-etched RVG initials in the dead wax of the a-side have a tilted "A" left of the RVG initials; the b-side as a tilted "D" to the right of the RVG initials (see images). They're common on Prestige pressings; see also the tilted "A" letters on PRLP 7053.
