I had phoned RMSPS and asked what current value of my NRA60 supplement was as I had considered leaving . They advised unless I actually left they were unable to give me an estimate but I then emailed and 2 weeks later received a reply with a figure for the NRA60 Supplement. Im not planning to take my NRA65 until 64 or 65 so I dont know exact value of that at moment.

Your supplement value will be shown on previous yearly statements.

I am same age and same service time ( bizarrely ). I got £2200 pa supplement. Of course everyone is different but it should give you some idea. Very handy it is too.

A different question concerning the supplement.
Is there a simple way of determining how much your pension drops when you lose the supplement at SPA ?
Instead of trying to find what it was when you received it and adding the pension increases.

There's no easy way, other that to work out how much the supplement was as a percentage of your total pension when you first got it, and then take off the same percentage when you reach state pension age.

Not sure of tge reason for your question but this is interesting. My AVCs don't make up the full 25% of my NRA60 pension. I'm therefore considering taking just my AVCs. For two reasons, 1 getting the bigger pension. And 2 mitigating the drop in income, when the supplement stops.
