--- Comment #1 from Katrin Fischer <katrin.fischer at bsz-bw.de> ---
It's a hard one, I wonder how other systems might handle that. My initial
feeling is that beginning (1900) seems better than end (1999) - but others
might disagree.

>From the documentatoin:
https://www.loc.gov/marc/bibliographic/bd008a.html
Determination of dates for 008/07-10 is made concurrently with the choice of
code for 008/06. See the section above on 008/06 for examples and input
conventions related to coded date information. The use of fill characters in
008/07-10, although possible, is discouraged since the data in Date 1 is used
for retrieval and duplicate detection in many systems. When fill is used in
008/07-10, all four positions must contain the fill character.
