I finally located a matching wheel for my '64 and replaced this oddball that was on the truck when I bought it. Curious of the year and model??

I could be wrong, but if that wheel is 17.5" its is very hard to find. The eight lug version of that wheel was standard equip for C20's in the 60's and used to be fairly common. That is not at all the case with the half ton version, hence they are highly sought after especially amongst the 4WD crowd.

Is there any stampings on it like around the valve stem ?

It is 15x5.5 and not finding any stampings aside from the inner rim with “made in the USA 15 x 5 1/2 K NT 1 6”

Its a 1960 rim if it has the bumps on the outer edge of rim , or a 1961 possibly if no bumps .
