Since it is recommend best-practice for skos:notation then I assume it is used frequently in publishing Thesauri. It is certainly used when skos:notation is used embedded in other models (e.g. the post codes in Ordnance Survey data [1]) or when notation sub-properties are used (e.g. the various codes which link the data.gov.uk transport data to the original codes from the NAPTAN database [2]).
