This question comes up from time to time and I'm sure the information has been already posted but could not locate it with a quick search. Was easier to cut and paste this list from my own file and as far as I know it should be correct. If I made a mistake I'm sure that someone more knowledgeable will let you know of any corrections that need to be made.
Marlin's year of manufacture for the 39A is determined from the following list of letter/numeral prefixs to the serial number:
1940-1941 - B
1945 - C
1946 - c (lower case)
1947 - D
1948 - E
1949 - F
1950 - G
1951 - H
1952 - J
1953 - K
1954 - L
1955 - M
1956 - N
1957 early - P
1957l ate-1958 early - R
1958 early - 1959 - S
1960 early - T
1960 (August) - 1961 - U
1961 (August) - 1962 - V
1963 - W
1964 - Y & Z
1965 - AA
1966 - AB
1967 - AC
1968 - AD or 68
1969 - 69
1970 - 70
1971 - 71
1972 - 72
Starting in 1973, the year of manufacture maybe determined by subtracting the first two digits of the serial number from 100:
Example: SN 2512345 would have been made in 1975 [100 - 25 = 75].
Hope this helps

In 1994 checkering was added. In my opinion there are four variations of the TDS. As always with Marlin years of Manufacture are not always rock solid as guns were not made in serial number order. First year with TDS serial number black butt plate smooth. 1988; Regular serial number black butt plate smooth. 1989-1994; Black butt plate checkered. The Mountie model is more desirable to the Marlin collectors because of the sleek style and smaller numbers made. They are a nice Marlin 22 caliber rifle. Robloxplayerlauncher.exe. The marlin-lever-action-rifles in the model 39A would be very popular in the 1950s and 60s. Musou orochi z save game editor. Many of these firearms were manufactured and can be found in fair numbers today.
