Beginning in 1968, Remington 1100 serial numbers started carrying the letter 'L' prefix. This is not secret info, it's been around for years. As a matter of interest, I have never seen a letter from Remington, on letterhead stationary, that was wrong on the date, except where they told me they had no records of 4 or 5 digit serial numbered.
Mar 26, 2020 A serial number is printed on the receiver of each Remington rifle or shotgun, provided it's a newer model. Serial numbers were not a requirement until 1968, so older firearms may not have serial numbers. You can still use the two-letter code on the barrel of the rifle or shotgun to look up the firearm's age.

One must be careful with Remington serial numbers because the serial numbers for the Models 1882/83 and the Model 1889 are the same. The Model 1882/3 starts with serial number 001 in 1882 and runs through 15,000+ in 1884. The Model 1889 begins with serial number 001 in 1889 and runs through 250,401+ in 1910.

Remington serial #ed all their rifles, I have a M24 Gallery Gun that was built in the early '20s, and it's a got a serial #. The Model 12's # is probably on the tang or under the front of the receiver, like my M24.
Manufacturer - Remington Model - 1100 Skeet Serial number- M406811X / Date code OU Year of manufacture - July, 1971 Estimated Value Range –see below. For your firearm, the following current values apply (from the Blue Book of Gun Values). Retail prices may be 20% higher.
Remington's web site had a marvelous article on the Model 11 a few years ago, but it had disappeared the last time I looked for it. *just checked again and couldn't find it; Drat* If you call Remington at 800-243-9700 and tell them the serial number of your Model 11, they'll (in my experience) kindly tell you its year of manufacture.

If you have the barrel, the barrel should tell you the manufacture date. As noted above, the serial number only identifies the model type (which might indicate a manufacture range, I should admit).
However, the lettered barrel code is the best way to find the manufacture date, assuming the barrel is original.

But, there are also apparently a lot of guns without the barrel codes. Made right in the middle of when Remington was doing the barrel code thingy. I know; I have a Model 1100 LT20 Magnum (1978 vintage) with the original barrel and no barrel code, and an 870 12 gauge Magnum (circa 1976) with the original barrel, also with no code, and finally an 1100 28 gauge (Probably 1976 or 1977) with no barrel codes. I love it when these things happen.
Oh yes, they all have a lonely little proof mark on the other side of the barrel.

Call Remington at 1-800-243-9700.(I think they are open M-F 9-5pm EST)
Follow the prompts (I think it is 7 and then 1) and you can speak with an actual person who can tell you month and year the gun was made. Barrels might sit a bit but receiver are the parts that are serialized.
I have nothing but positive feedback to give Remington. The staff has been very helpful. Nice to speak with folks..
Just my $0.02 worth...

100% on the pat on the back for Remington's staff. I am sure they sometimes have to wonder why all these people care exactly when their guns were made nearing a half century ago. But, they come through repeatedly just the same.

I guess it might be important to know if it is over a half century old. This would make it eligible for transfer under a Curio and Relic FFL. (At least I think that is how it works..)
