Tinned Date?

Is there a way to determine when the tobacco was tinned?


I've googled to the end of the earth but did not have any success.

The ones that have a tinned date are GLPease, C&D, McClelland, and very rarely Petersons.

GLPease and C&D is the whole date stamped on it (month, day, year) and McClelland is the last two digits are the year.


I have only seen a couple of Petersons tins with a date and it is the month and year.
