Du Pont lot number

I just turned up almost a full case of DuPont FFFg powder lot #08-76 and i am wondering how old it is.
Nice shiny cans no rust still in the original box.
I have used a little and it seems to burn just fine.
Any one know how to identify the lot number as to manufacturing date?
Thanks
Bunk

I'm jealous, not really but it is nice when ya make a find like that. I have a source that I get an occasional can from made in 64 IIRC. wM1
