That's what I thought, but like the monkey in the Lion King said "Look harder".
It might have 12AX7 on there somewhere.

Not 12AX7. Magnoval sweep tube.

I guess the stamping machine was on strike at the time, and it's replacement just decided to stamp both voltages on. It is indeed a 13GB5, according to the filament resistance. I wonder if in 50 years I can get $100,000 for it like, those coins that were double stamped?
