I picked a Huffman Dayton over the weekend at a swap meet, and using this thread I found the s/n H43xxxx to figure out the date range.
My question is about another serial number on it that seems to be added after the fact. (wish I could post a picture...) The number appears to be BBL240-47, however both of the "B's" look like they were struck twice making it look like B3B3L240-47. They look like they were struck in the same font as the GI bikes of that era, but the bike is maroon not green. The really odd thing is that this s/n runs perpendicular to the main s/n along the non-drive side of the bottom bracket, and not parrallel/under the original s/n.
I know its tough without a picture, but any ideas on what it might be?
