I don't think you can tell what year it is if it has the plain Anastigmat - there's no serial number to guide you and if it isn't coated, all I can say is prewar. I think they coated all Monitor lenses after the war, so that's the only way I know of telling the difference. I don't think the distance scale is a guide to age, I've seen them on prewar Monitors.
