The switch from I-frame to J-frame of the .32s took place April 20, 1961 at s/n 712954.

At first the J-frame version used a flat thumb latch. S&W went back to the regular thumb latch, which this one has, in 1966. However this one also has the diamond pattern around the grip screw, a feature dropped in 1968. So it would seem a safe guess this one would have been made in the 1966 - 1968 era.
