There are markings other than serial numbers that will tell when one was made but my reference does not list them. All it has to say is that before 1925 the word CHAMPION was stamped above all other markings and after 1925 the word CHAMPION was below all other markings. Not a highly valuable gun no matter the age.
Your champion Model was made between 1920 and 1929. There are no records available to give a more exact date of manufacture.

It was built on the 1890 Hopkins and Allen patent and is very similar to several dozens of inexpensive single shot shotguns.
