Alpha pot codes?

Can anyone tell me what the ink stamped numbers on the back of Alpha pots represent? They are the only markings on the pots that I can see and all the pots in the amp are one of the following codes:

5N4
6G1
6E2

Can you determine value/taper type from these?

Those look like date codes or lot codes to me.

You sure there is not more information printed around the sides, or even stamped on the front side?
