Unfortunately, there is not as AGD did not track the serial numbers in that way. They were made in batches anyhow so valve #1001 could have been put in the 1999th Automag that was made instead of the 1001st.

"68Automag A.I.R." valves can generally be assumed to be older than "68Automag Classic" valves. A large hex nut velocity adjuster instead of 1/8" Allen key port can point to an older valve, as can a non-welded powertube that threads off the front half of the front half of the valve.

In any case, post pics or tell us your valve markings!

mine got welded powertube and 1/8" velocity adjuster and whot looks like matching airtract frome valve to on/off.
might be its some sort of blended parts but front and back valve numbers match 10046.
now days its upgraded with LvL10.
