歳 make perfect sense in this context.. The top is clearly 山,  lower left stroke of 示 cross over with the  lower left stroke of 厂.  It is  歳 no doubt. If you say it is 籤 , first it make no sense, second, it missed the bottom stroke

@TangHo I’m not sure that I agree with any of  that comment. The top doesn’t look like 山 at all, the bottom left is super wonky (歲 has a very clean bottom left edge). As for 籖 not making sense, maybe or maybe not.
