Any idea what this translates to? I guess 8 is for 1958 and A is for January. "+" is the screw or rivet head but what is the D? Shouldn't that be a number for the day of the month?

Look real close. It most likely say 84*D. 1958 4th April.

The # on my 1959 861D tractor is 84*G. 1958 4th July.

 Attn: john in la- It's definitely an A - 8A* in reply to john in la, 06-02-2007 08:53:20  
The entire line of text in the casting consists of:
A capital "F" inside of a capital "C" (Cleveland Foundry????); "8A* D": then a gap of about 1.5" and a "2".
Did the person preparing the mold assemble the casting date plate one character at a time? If so then maybe he/she picked up an A by mistake instead of a 4.
E-mail is open.
