The thing that makes this so trick is the rip -- it looks like there's a 2 but it's wood-grain. It looks like there's a 1 in front of the 9 but it's the edge of the rip.
But really, just can't tell. For the moment we'll just assume that this instrument was made in the year 9.
Are you scouting this wreck or do you have it in-house?

The Pic was taken thru the F hole. That is the best we can get for now. Much of the ink is faded away. Possibly from washing away glue drips in the past when gluing open seams.
Bass in house?.. Let me look..
