Hi there... am trying to translate a stamped marking into a date. The chair is a side shell, dark green, and it has the remains of the paper Herman Miller label listing patents. The stamped number above the label is
J5260322
Is that May 2, 1960, Number 322? Or something else?
Other details: Chair has an H base, hollow tubular legs, molded-in Herman Miller logotype, and a star-C logo above the HM mark (Century Plastics?).
Thanks in advance for any help.

No clue
It's practically impossible to nail down when exactly the chair was made. The star-C logo is from Cincinnati Milacron. You might find this thread interesting-
If you post a photo, we might be able to help you guess at an age a little better.
