Runout (Side 1, stamped): APLP 00*2 A  

*SECOND 0 HAS BEEN OVERSTAMPED BY 2 TO CORRECT IT. SEE PIC.# 11

IT IS HARD TO SEE THE ORIGINAL STAMPED "0" UNDER THE 2 BECAUSE THE ORIGINAL STAMPED No.s ARE SO FAINT (BARELY VISIBLE). IT IS OBVIOUS THOUGH THAT THE MUCH DEEPER "2" HAS BEEN ADDED LATER. COMPARE WITH THE ORIGINAL STAMPED No.s ON SIDE 2 (PIC. # 12)
