Anyone else out there have a late Nov.(78) production, 1979 model, with a "D" for the tenth(10th) vin #, on the vin PLATE

Trying to determine if there was more than one "mis-stamp" on the vin plate on the windshield pillar.

Only interested in the plate on the windshield, not the door sticker, or title #s.
Thanks for looking!

Yeah, it should be a number in that position. So far, this is the ONLY "D" vin in existance. No one @ NCRS has seen one, either.
