What year is this Schwinn? Check out this wild serial number!

Serial number 555554
My friend changed the crank, you can't go by the date on it. The morrow hub is a C3, first quarter of 1933.
I figure the bike was built and sold the following year, in 1934.

Looks like a faint "I" before the 5.

I don't know. I know it's interesting having 6 numbers.

I can't believe nobody can help me with the year of this bike? I figured there was an expert here on the Cabe?

PULL THE CRANK AND SEE IF IT IS DATED!

Unfortunately, the crank has been changed to a girls dog leg crank.

5556** I'LL SAY IT COULD ONLY BE 1934, THE LAST YEAR ALL NUMERALS!

Thanks man! That's my guess, but I've never seen a six number serial number. My oldest Schwinn until now, was a 1936.

Here's the list that is somewhat flawed in the later years.
