why do you need to have two zeros?? you could just have a 9 instead of zero (on the dice that doesn't have the three) and be done with it

How about 0123789
123456

You can represent any number from 1-30 without using so called inversion of 180.

012345789
and
012

Use the nine to invert to a six, and swap the cubes for any day above 29. (ie: only ever 30 or 31).

why many ppl focus on 0 in both cubes, is it necessary,? and 6 to treat as 9.
Simply
cube 1 : 0 1 2 3 4 5
cube 2 : 1 2 6 7 8 9

0 1 2 are numbers most used so they should be in both dice. and rest no u can distribute in dices and use only 6 (when needed 9 rotate it). 0 is in both dice becoz we need 01 02 03 ----- 09 date to be represented
0 1 2 3 4 5
0 1 2 6 7 8
