Notes:
The O-105 supposed overdate is actually just an 1819 with a cracked 9. The "1s" used in 1819 are different than the "1s" used in 1818, so overdates can be easily picked out in general by the 1 type. The O-105 uses the 1s from 1819 and really is not an overdate but rather a cracked 9 variety.
