I think the date of production is the 20. Dec. 1951 (see the second line), the 20. Nov 1951 is the pattern date, that must be the date that kind (pattern) of pants was designed. That pants is the ancestor of the M65 cold weather uniform trouser! In ebay you will get up to 40 EURO if the pant is in a good condition and in a large size. It is certainly over 50 years old!

So long mreheater72
