A solid bronze MAN Hamburg data plate from 1964.

This is a solid bronze date plate for a M.A.N. Hamburg manufactured 85kw ( 500.000 kcal/h) Water boiler.
It is mounted on a steel plate with copper rivets alongside a brass plate with boiler details.

The bauart number is correct.

However someone in the past chose to grind off the date and mill in a date of 1944 and add a waffenstamp to the brass plate. Implying that it was wartime and from a U boat.
Inspection under a microscope showed the differences in stamp and that the correct date was likely to be 1964.
Discussion with the MAN archive confirmed that the use of the name MAN Werk Hamburg did not occur before 1957. Hence it must be from 1964.

Hence we have filled the waffenstamp with solder and remarked the date with 1964 to return it to its close to original condition.

The piece weighs 1.6 kg and measures 23 cm x 13cm x 1 cm.
