Either someone thinks that they can pass that off for a huge pay day to some uneducated buyer or they dont realize that anyone that even knows what the "MN" block is will certainly validate it before buying. Now they have a 512 block that needs to be decked to get rid of that bogus stamping.

Thanks for all the images for comparison - once again the yenko.net community proves thier knowledge and abilities.

The engine plant had several different suppliers of those stamps. When they changed the dates, the fonts would change so you can't really compare a Dec block to a June block.
Restamp, btw. [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/smile.gif[/img]
