Serial numbers prior to 1900 are numerical, and those after 1900 have a one or two letter prefix.
For machines prior to 1890 there may be two numbers on the machine, the larger of which is the one that should be used to determine the manufacture date.
Dates associated with Singer serial numbers prior to 1900 are from estimated production numbers, after 1900 they come from company records of allocation of batches of serial numbers called Register Number Lists.
The dates given are not the manufacture date of the machine, rather, the date the serial numbers were allocated for manufacture of a certain model of machine.
The machines were likely manufactured weeks or even months later. Sadly, the date given isn't the "birthday" of your machine, it's more like the date of conception.
Numbers on sewing machine motors are not the serial number or model number of the machine.
