Production Date Codes
Below is the date code chart for the production of Fiesta®. From 1986 to 2011 the code consisted of 3 letters. The first two letters signify the year of production and the last letter the quarter it was produced in. (Example 1986 1st quarter would be AAA)
Beginning in 2012 HLC increased the year code to 4 letters. The first three letters signify the year of production and the last letter the quarter it was produced in. (Example 2012 2nd quarter would be AAAB)
- NOTE – In 2022 FTC elected not to use the code “KKK” so they skipped it and moved to LLL. It is not an authors error.
