It was both a Palindrome and an Ambigram! Reads from L to R, R to L and also upside down. It happens a few times with a year only, but first I've seen with date, month and year. Know of anymore other than 1961?

December 2nd this year according to this website;

But it all depends on which format is used for the date.

I've always thought that the number 9 was somewhat unique. I'm not sure of the mathematical term for it, but it is unique amongst numbers in that whatever 9 is multiplied by, you can always obtain 9.
So, for example
2x9=18 and 1+8=9;
3x9=27 and 2+7=9;
4x9=36 and 3+6=9 and so on I believe until affinity!

Put a 6 in front of 9 and turn 180° and get the same number.
