The last digit was punched in by hand, so this can vary in distancce from the third number. It is the widest I have seen to date. any further right and it could fall off the edge of the earth.

It is done this way probably for space alignment in right and left. The whole number is aligned centered perfectly so the problem may be in 2 digits in centers that are not aligned.

The final 1 seems much farther spaced than any I have seen.  Thoughts or information most welcome.

The last digit, or the last two digits were entered by hand. As a result the date can appear wide or narrow. That was made from a 186 master, but some are only 18.
