Date on WILL. It is a problem?

Just a quick question. Just storing out paperwork, will, getting ducks in a line, etc. Notice the date is a little wrong in terms of the extra 1 in front of the 13 because the pen didn't work first time, didn't think much of it, but now I do. It is worth doing this again, or will it not make a difference?

    Don't think there's much likelihood of anybody getting confused between 13th February and 113th February...

    Can't see it matters.

    Thank you. I didn't think it would, but wanted a second option.

    I don’t know about the rules governing Wills but I’ve just had my power of attorney application rejected because one of my replacement attorneys had gone over one of the date digits twice on the declaration, to make it clearer, the OPG say it looks like it had been altered so I have to get them to redo the form.
