    This is the second note my wife has found this year between the pages of a second-hand book. Is my interpretation of date and serial number correct?
    Date: 1989
    Serial No: 0093333
    Thanks for any info

    I once found a ticket to get into the Palace of King Minos at Knossos, Crete between the pages of a secondhand book. Ironic because my ancestry on my mom's side is from Crete.

    JeffC Go explore something and think a happy thought!

    Hi. The "circle" is a "5" and not a "zero." So it's 5593333 or 3333955 if read from right to left.

    Although the text in Arabic is read right to left, numbers are read left to right as in, say English.
