Can anyone give help me with the code for dating Wilson caps? The cap I have is stamped DZC.

Thanks.

Re: Wilson Cap Code

George,

I believe your cap was made in January 1961. I've been told that my chart may not be 100% correct. If I am wrong, I am sure another forum member will make the necessary corrections.

The first letter designates the last digit of the year of manufacturer.
A=8
B=9
C=0
D=1
E=2
F=3
G=4
H=5
J=6
K=7

The second letter the Month.
Z=January
Y=February
X=March
W=April
V=May
U=June
T=July
S=August
R=September
Q=October
P=November
O=December
The third letter "C" stands for cap.
