Interesting serial number

My first edition of "Standard Catalog of S&W" has the N-frame N serial numbers ending in 1983 with N932xxx, with all guns made after that having the 3-letter and 4-number serial numbers (AAA-0000) that were begun to be used in 1980. Doesn't seem to leave room for a N939xxx serial number; but that gun must be from the very last ones made in 1983.
