The 7.04.82 in the 11th picture is likely to be a date code.
But it's in European notation, meaning day.month.year.
Ie it's 7th Arpil, 1983

Rule of thumb: if it's "/" then it's MM/DD/YY or YY/MM/DD (depending
whether it's USian or Japanese). If it's "." then it's DD.MM.YY
(most common European notation). If it's "-" it was supposed
to be YYYY-MM-DD by ISO8601, but too many people confused it as
being the "new way" to write dates, so it can be literally anything.


Thanks for the pictures!
