Default KH KO wheel date identification

I posted this on CF and didn't get much response, as expected. But, I was hoping since we have some seasoned members here who are MIA from the CF, maybe they could shed a little light on my question.

I've pulled and getting ready to sell my Kelsey Hayes KO wheels off my 66. Three wheels have definite 66 dates stamped into them, but one has an odd B12-21 date that doesn't fit into any dating stamps I've seen. It has the KH logo stamped/cast into it, so I know it's real, but certainly raises questions.

Looking for any ideas, experiences, theories or ?

As long as they are original KH wheels why worry about the dates let alone just one wheel?

What about your spare? Is he it KH? How is it stamped?

My ‘67 has repro bolt-ons. If they were original KH wheels, I’d be doing the same thing you’re doing with yours.

Take care,
Steve

Only four wheels (not 5) so they were not put on at the factory. I installed bolt-on wheels too, as real KO's don't mean anything to me, but I'm sure most buyers will have questions and a lot of misinformation out there.
