Good afternoon, I came across this 194? Years ago and out aside as PMD but when looking at it again I started to question myself. So I would rather verify it is and sound stupid than toss it and find out given the year it could be erase all doubt and be stupid..lol
Hmmm, a 1943 perhaps? lol Closest I can tell it is a 1941 or 1945, looks like a little bit of an upright digit in the last number spot, afraid it's damage anyway...
