Does the coin say '90'?

The number refers to the last two digits of the K-Frame part number.

I didn't get down a look at it, but I had heard in the past it meant HP, but that's just discussion talk, many years ago.

Yeah, one coin for the 383, 2 for the 440 and 3 for the HEMI. .....that'll work.

This was discussed several months ago do some research. If it really matters there was an answer.

I believe it's a repair as that is where the pivot shaft goes through the k frame.
