I would recommend using the secs rather than the date to indicate
when the card was last updated. First, this would allow printing
changed cards several times a day, and second, it would avoid any
problems with different date formats in different countries.

In general: If you want your stacks to run internationally,
don't rely too much on having a specific date format
(e.g. in Denmark the date 3/4 is the third of April while
it is the fourth of March in the US).
