Here's something I ran across today: an IHC with all of the digits repunched. While it's pretty worn, I like how you can still see the repunching clearly:

I see something with the 8. It definitely isn't old crud/dirt? The other digits, I'm not sure if I see anything.

Ah...I suppose it's critical to know where to look. This is the plain 5, Snow-3. The Cherrypicker's Guide says "there are at least four date punches, one north, south and east of the primary date". I'll post a few pics from my scope.

Despite some dirt, there's lot going on that is hard to photograph, and this degree of wear reduces some places to just odd shapes. I've pointed out just a few of the more obvious markers. There are also punches between the digits, but those were tough to capture.
