There are a few

Apple

serial number formats and this tool supports them all from the 80s to current day. Classic Mac serial number decoding is a work in progress but should return a date at least.

For details of how this tool works and how it differs from othertools see the how it works page. For modern (post-2010) 12 character serial numbers you can replace digits 6, 7 and 8 with an x (or any letter) to avoid sending your unique serial number. They are the only characters in the serial number that are unique to your item but do not affect decoding. Unfortunately due to abuse direct linking to results is no longer allowed.
