Did it come stock with gold schallers? Tried to date it but "Cracking the Code" doesn't list E + 3 digits. Maybe 1972?

Don't know why they didn't use the one from the correct side, but it looks much older than the Schallers.

Mine has chrome Grovers on it. And the Ovation Archives sez; "Machines: Deluxe Chrome" Mine are all chrome, no gold trim. But mine has a Silver Label, and you can see the Fiberglas weave inside. But with that "E" serial number, and the winged(?) bridge, That one is obviously older than mine.
