Nostradamus never actually made such a prediction.

In fact, the quote that is attributed to him in modern culture is the following quote:

On the 11th day of the 9 month,

two metal birds will crash into two tall statues

in the new city,

and the world will end soon after.

The reality is that Nostradamus never made this quote. This quote actually comes from another source who was, ironically, trying to explain the "Nostradamus effect" to other people by giving a random and ambiguous quote and showing how it could be applied to seemingly important events and appear to be a genuine "prediction" when in reality, it was pretty randomly concocted.

The quote in question was written in 1997 by Neil Marshall who was a student attempting to debunk the "prophecy" of Nostradamus by using the same type of vague wording and phrasing to show the fallacy of such predictions.

It's not Nostradamus' quote. He never made such a statement, therefore no year can be given for the quote.

The quote simply doesn't exist.
