Can you tell what year something was made using the serial number?

[Edit]

Yes, most likely. Lots of things have serial numbers, and those are often recorded in guidebooks.

Additionally, calling the manufacturer such as Singer Sewing Machines with a serial no will get you a date as well. Remington Firearms have a letter code stamped into the steel barrel in addition to the serial no. which indicates the month and year of manufacture and that decoding key was found right here at WikiAnswers!
