I bought these tins of Dunhill Nightcap and Royal Yacht many years ago - maybe 15 - 20 years ago. Stupidly, I didn't write the date on them. Can someone decipher the labels and tell me if there is date information on them? Thanks.

Thanks - nope, no dates at all that I can see. 06 and 08 seem correct. Thanks very much. Out of curiosity, how are you getting that from the label?

If you look to the right of the bar code, there’s a long number. That’s an Orlik/STG production code. I don’t have a link handy on my phone, but the first two digits are the year, skip the next two digits, and the two digits after that are the month. 👍
