Default jack date

Does any one know if a late 1965 jack should be stamped with a date. I am looking for a correct jack for a late 1965 and was told by a seller on e-bay that the date stamps did not start until 1967. Thanks for any replies.

Here is a photo of my jack with the date of B7 which translates to Feb 67. My car is a June 67 build date.
