Is there some way to determine what year a Banshee is by the frame serial nbr? Thx for any help or info...Dean

 

The tenth digit of the number. It should be a letter. I can't remember what letter they started with but I know that X stands for 99 and so W should be 98, V should be 97 and on back.

 

Alky is correct.

Some letters are skipped though, including all vowells and they use numbers instead of letters for 2001- up
