So got a anvil for 2002? And not showing is anvil with 50 in it for 2014 ( 50th anniversary knives)? Showing is a half circle with a dot? Are there 2014’s with the non anvil tang stamp?

Ok duh 2002 100 years of buck. 50th of the 110 so half circle dot all non 110’s. Answered my own question
The gears in my head are missing a few teeth.
 
Yes there are. The Cabela's 110 Alaskan Guides did not get the 50th anniversary tang stamp until late in 2014. Early 2014 AG 110's have the normal 2014 tang stamp.

(repost from Dec 2014) Bit of a story on that one. Wanting a 110 AG with the 2014 50th tang mark I made the 75 mile round trip to the local Cabela's back in June only to find out the knife was not in stock. Fast forward to last month I made the trip again. They had 2 in stock. The box with an Aug/2014 label date contained a knife with the standard 2014 date code and the other box with a Sept/2014 label date contained a knife with a standard 2013 date coded tang. At this point I thought they were not going to make the 110 AG with the Anniversary tang mark. Just before Thanksgiving Cabela's had the Alaskan Guide knives on sale on-line so I ordered two. I received 2 110 AG's with the Buck 50th tang mark. The label date on the box for both was 10/07/2014. It appears the the 110 AG with the 50th tang mark will be rare if they only started making them in October and I can't imagine Cabela's sells that many AG 110's compared to the standard 110.

Yes that’s what i would think as most symbols not all can produce 4 years. Was surprised when they used +, -,and x but didn’t follow with a division symbol which i just realized is not on the keyboard? lol
