What date is this?

[GP012]

Looks to be CCUT, which is a transitional code from March of 1999.

Thanks! I actually thought it said "C6UT"...

Any idea on the factory code?

It looks like ECA, which I believe translates to the H. Upmann factory

Yes, it is quite clearly "C6UT". Taken literally, this corresponds to no known boxdate, including 1999. IMO, someone put the numeral "6" in place of a "C", either intentionally (lacking another C) or inadvertantly. Best bet the date is March 1999.

It does look like a "6" has been substituted for a "C".

I don't think it's a big deal, I have seen an upside-down "3" used as the "E" in "ECA" before.

Thank you all for the answers! Always nice to be in helpful company. :-)

All i have to worry about now is the possible impotence I will suffer after smoking this box... :-D

Need help with this smudgy boxcode. Is it a 99:er?

Thanks in advance!
