Pre-1973 Raleigh Competition Mk. II with Nervex Professional lugs and the sloping fork crown - for '73 they had Carlton Capella lugs and when those ran out for '74 they got Prugnat lugs.

EDIT: Likely 1972, when it became the Competition Mk. II - earlier versions had Nervex Pro lugs but used a different box-style crown and not the sloping crown.seen here.
