Establishing the year of manufacture of two Garcia Mitchell 410A reels

I have recently purchased a mixed lot of used fishing tackle which includes two old Garcia Mitchell 410A reels. Both reels have the same number stamped  on the foot i.e.  325511, there is no letter prefix visible!. I have read the article relating to “Dating Mitchell Reels” with interest and note that the serial number marked on the reels does not match the format in the article. The last two digits could be the month i.e. November, but the first two digits cannot be the day of the month because there are not 32 days in any month of the year.  I would therefore welcome any assistance your are able to offer which would enable me to arrive at the date of manufacture of these reels
