None of those are valid serial numbers. It might be N669336.
Best to get it off of the butt of the grip frame - take off the grips.

here are all the numbers A21 16 24 37464 N and on the bottom of the butt is N669336

N669336 was shipped in 1980.

All those other numbers are merely assembly, assemblers, fitters and inspectors stamps and have little or no meaning once the gun leaves the factory.

Thanks I bought the gun in 84 and it is a great shooter I really like my 41's, 57 and 657 PC.
