Looks like a 7 to me hh

Not much doubt; clearly a '7' (flat topped with 'pointed upper corners') versus rounded top and no 'corners' on top of the '3'. One clue is to look at other samples of 1853s and 1857s, then the difference is more obvious.

Agreed, 7, no doubt about it.

7. sorry, would've been nice to have an 1853 NA.

As stated before, it's an 1857, study the top of the 7 by comparing it to other 57 dates.

It's an 1857. The digit in question is a 7 no doubt about that.
