The year of manufacture looks like 1954
The Marlin 336SC was first chambered in 35 Remington in 1950, and was no longer cataloged after 1963 (the SC model was also chambered in 30/30 Win, 32 Win Special, and 219 Zipper). Marlin levers are very common; early models have Ballard rifling, 1956 models onward have Micro-Groove rifling (1955 for the 219 Zipper). Early models are not factory drilled and tapped for scope mounting; 1955 thru 1963 models are. The deluxe version of the 336SC has nicer wood and is hand checkered; and even though the barrel may still be marked "SC", it is the model "SD" and is more desirable. Some people collect older Marlin levers according to period of manufacture because they prefer certain period features; but condition and caliber is everything to Marlin collectors, with high condition Zippers and 32 Special SC's being the most difficult to locate and therefore the most desirable. I suggest you visit the Marlin Owners website and ask your questions and post a good picture or two on the forum there; but depending on condition, a 336SC in 35 Remington will fetch anywhere from $150-450, with a 336SD in high condition bringing as much as $650 to the right collector.

From 1962 thru 1968 Marlins rimfire rifles (other than the 39 series lever actions) used a two letter date code that was stamped on the barrel. This date code is different than the one already listed, as Marlin rimfire rifles (other than the model 39 series) did not have a serial numbers until required to by Law after 1968. The first letter of the date code represented the month of manufacture while the second letter indicated the year. This date code was usually stamped on the left side of the barrel just in front of the receiver.
