US  ones have numeric sequence  like 8 digits if I remember well on the outside of the rear dropout.

Non US made have a sequence beginning with a letter under the bb.
July 85 would begin with G5 for instance. G for July and 5 for 1985.

what you got dan? 018376557 would be 01/83  nr76557 if you catch my drift. a little 4 between the rear tubes ona dropout would mean pro size.
