Obviously, when just looking at photos, a half inch can disappear pretty easily. So I know I might be wrong about this. I would just like some confirmation for my own peace of mind. Thanks.

Serial number is 5k4xxxx
1973.

Even the SCSW got that one right (often does not on the xKxx numbers):
5K1-5K6616 = 1972
5K6617-5K73962 = 1973
5K73973-5K99999 = 1974
