Number question

I have a TR6R that the DMV thinks is a 1965 but I've always thought it was a 1969. I've had it for 6 years and have heard different opinions on its true year over the time. The number is DC17*** and both engine and frame match. Its all original. Thanks in advance!

All 650cc models from 1963 to 1968 were prefixed DU.
DC is April 1969.
