Hebrew term or phrase: samekh dalet
On a hospital form, before the ID number (teudat zehut) there is a field with samekh dalet under it (followed by 8 more fields for the ID number and another field with samekh bet - sifrat bikoret).

I assume the samekh stands for sifrat, but what does the dalet stand for?

Explanation:
Can you not post in Hebrew text?
Anyway, it's probably "serial number" (I doubt the patient fills it in). I'm thinking of מס"ד which is מספר סידורי.
Desertfox may be correct but in this context I don't think you actually write "decimal number" in English.

Notes to answerer
Asker: I can post in Hebrew but I am concerned that some people will not see it properly b/c of encoding. Thank you very much.
