By default, Excel will typically recognize the date "November 12, 1952" and convert it into the format that matches the locale and date settings of the system. In many locales set to a month-day-year format, it would likely display as 12/11/1952. However, in a day-month-year format system, it might display as 11/12/1952.
If you're specifically looking for the default format among the options you've provided, 12/11/1952 is the most common interpretation in a month-day-year system, assuming no particular formatting is applied.
