Date Symbols

1958 – 1972 Record crank arms were not dated on their back side
1973 – 1979
The year of crank manufacture is the last digit in a diamond
1980 – 1984
The year of crank manufacture is the last digit in a circle
1985-Post
“11” in a rectangle means 1985, “22” means 1986, and “33” means 1987…

If yours does not have a number inside the diamond or circle you’ve got a pre-1972.
