Example:
052 23 1185
IB 96248
000173
30796854 01
The eight-digit number at the beginning of the last line is the reference number, usually starting with 3079, and for animals mostly with 3074.

The production/release year can be found in the middle of the first line as a two-digit number; in this example, 23, meaning 2023.
