The next part of the serial number is eight numeric digits. The first four numbers should be a two digit month followed by a two digit year. The last four digits are the serialization digits 0000 to 9999 depending on what number the frame was of the years production. If the frame was made overseas in Taiwan, it gets more complicated.

- The serial number is stamped on the head tube and is something like this' OE 30848' could be wrong about the first letters tho' they are quite hard to make out. Maybe OL or 01 or something similar. Stem is a ttt and handlebars are Cinelli. Rear derailleur is a Campa Nuovo Gran Sport. Crank is a Campa 'GS' (Gran Sport I assume).
- SUNBEAM FRAME NUMBER DATING. 1909 = 96,739 (declared) 1910 = 101,700 (calculated) 1911 = 106,700 (calculated) 1912 = 111,642 (declared) PREMIER FRAME NUMBER DATING. BEESTON HUMBER FRAME NUMBER DATING. ELSWICK HOPPER FRAME NUMBER DATING. The following dated bicycle frame numbers from the Singer Car Club (not guaranteed): 1903 – 142069.
- The serial number 0x882, which is in hex, would convert to the 2178th frame produced for that year, so probably later in the production run, based on most serial numbers I've seen, whatever the actual year. I won't pay the extra $1k that people ask for them and wouldn't give a frame extra value based on a serial number. In the end, it's hard to.
- I've searched the Bianchi forum posts (using several difference advanced search strings) for an explanation of how to read the Bianchi serial number code. No such post exists as far as I could find. A lot of chat about where to find the serial number on the frame, but now how to read decipher the code.
