In addition to the above, the "7" denotes it was made in a year ending in 7, thus 1967 or 1977, both too far away from 1969-71, when most "large H" stamped wheels were used. I don't believe Mopar steel wheels made prior to 1969 had flat areas between the lug holes...most had bumps. At least, the 1968 Hemi cars were that way. If it has a small H stamped between the lug holes, then it's a later H wheel, most likely from 1977.

I would guess there is also a full part # under that rust by the valve stem

Here's my small H wheels with a part number by the valve stem....these will work for my A12 (someday  ), the price was right. Perfect 50/50 wheels....50 MPH @ 50 Feet you won't know the difference

'69 model year "H" wheel & I'm not sure '67 model year had a "H" wheel, especially with a flat center.
