I have a Stagecoach with a similar height crown too, though it is dented differently,
I have cof cof... some Stagecoach hats and... they all have different dents (I think) ;)

This is the tag in the Hi-7,
Thank you. Same color code 014.
It's a nice looking one and never saw a Hi-7 on that color. Only black and silverbelly ones.

interesting ... to my eye that is pre 50s ... no? So where this stitch entered is more of a mystery than I thought ... mid to late 40s probably ?

I have no way to date this hat with accuracy - my guess would be a four year spread centered on 1950. The Playboy became a very popular brand for Stetson - it was likely produced in many configurations over its twenty something year run. Haven't seen enough early models but I don't remember a pre-1940 example with the stitch that we see in later years.
