Canon Extension Tube has S/N?

[eli452]

I have received the 2 Canon extension tubes EF12II & EF25II. The only writing on the tubes was "1301" on the EF25II and "1201" on the EF12II. So my question are these S/N?
On the box there are several more writings, for the EF25II:
CZ 23522000DB0107
9199A001 [AA]
EAN/JAN 4 960999 204307
UPC 0 13803 03560 5
Searching the web EAN is probably Electronic Article Number, JAN is Japanese Article Number and UPC is Uniform Part Code.
no "1301" in any of the above.

As far as I remember: no they don't have serial numbers. I had the same question when I bought mine.

They're not long enough to be unique serial numbers. But there are different numbers on my EF 25 II (left) and EF 12 II extenders than on yours, so I suspect they are production codes of some kind.
