Here is one way to compare the entire rows between the data frames:

> x1 <- do.call(paste, dat1)
> x2 <- do.call(paste, dat2)
> dat1[x1 %in% x2,]
[1] v1 v2
<0 rows> (or 0-length row.names)
>
> x1
 [1] "2006-01-03 7312.5" "2006-05-03 3352.5" "2006-05-04 4252.5" "2006-05-11
3825"
 [5] "2006-05-12 2700"   "2006-05-16 585"    "2006-05-19 810"    "2006-05-26
3015"
 [9] "2006-09-15 2925"   "2006-10-30 1102.5" "2006-11-08 2632.5" "2006-11-14
652.5"
[13] "2006-11-20 1417.5"
