I'm almost sure (you're never absolutely sure :-) ), since I kept all
commands I entered in PgAdminIII SQL Window, and they're reported above.
On the other side, I tried the same procedure on another field and it
succeeded.
The only difference between the 2 fields, and I don't know if it can
make any sense, is that the field I tried now and succeeded was created
as text, while the other field (dateofbirth) was a timestamp I ALTERed
with the statement
alter table tbl_p alter column dateofbirth type text using
to_char(dateofbirth, 'YYYY-MM-DD');
Assuming the ALTER TABLE was done and then the values where encrypted,
that does not seem to affect anything here(More below):
test=# create table pgp_alter_test(id integer, birthdate date);
CREATE TABLE
test=# \d pgp_alter_test
Table "public.pgp_alter_test"
Column | Type | Collation | Nullable | Default
-----------+---------+-----------+----------+---------
id | integer | | |
birthdate | date | | |
test=# insert into pgp_alter_test values (1, '2018-06-21');
INSERT 0 1
test=# select * from pgp_alter_test ;
id | birthdate
----+------------
1 | 2018-06-21
(1 row)
test=# alter table pgp_alter_test alter column birthdate type text using
to_char(birthdate, 'YYYY-MM-DD');

test=# update pgp_alter_test set birthdate = pgp_sym_encrypt(birthdate,
'AES_KEY') where id = 1;

I am at a loss now. The only thing I can think of is that data itself is
actually corrupted. Maybe some sort of language encoding/collation
issue. Just not sure how to test that at the moment.
I'm just afraid it can happen in production....
create table pgp_test(id integer, fld_1 varchar);
insert into pgp_test values (1, pgp_sym_encrypt('2018-06-21',
'AES_KEY'))
Have you looked at the entry in its encrypted state to see if it looks
the same as pgp_sym_encrypt('2018-06-21', 'AES_KEY')?
Yes, it seems to have the same value
