The pocketwatch database says it is a size 0.I have
a Bunn Special marked like yours s/n 2895598.It falls within the s/n listed in your post.

It looks like a mis-stamp from the factory.

First time I have seen that.That certaintly appears
to be the case.Is there any way to alter the number
without it being obvious?

Would that like taking a double stamp coin and re-stamping it.

I think I'll leave the misfit how it was born.

Zooming in on the "8" in Rogers watch makes it definitely look like it was stamped with a "2" by mistake. To me anyway.
