Is this just an incredible coincidence or does Kanstul not use real serial numbers so the horn cannot be identified if stolen?
Early instruments will have a 'lion head' by the serial numbers and are engraved 'The King'. In 1918 the company was incorporated and 'Co' was added to the engraving of all instruments, before 1918 the engraving read simply as 'H. In 1926-1928 H. White introduced Sterling Silver bells to his instruments. '6' = Valve Trombone, '7' = Slide Trombone, '8' = Baritone Horn & Euphonium, '9' = Tuba, and '10' = Sousaphone. The remaining numbers indicated the production number within the month. From 1987 on, the two-digit prefix number plus 50 will give you the year of manufacture.

King 3b Trombone Serial Numbers
qcm is correct.Also, 5-digit serial numbers designate instruments made starting in the year 2000.
The first horns Zig made under the Kanstul label were all 3-digit, starting with '0'. He was not sure if his horns would be successful (!), and a lot of the first horns were sent to various name players for them to try & give Zig feedback. He didn't keep accurate records of who got what horn.
About 15 years ago I was playing with the jazz band at Cal State LA, and a kid brought in a copper bell Kanstul with the serial number 030. This was also before Zig put any kind of model designations of his horns - the only way to tell the difference was to see the bell flare.
This horn was the now 1500. I was also playing a 1500 (#17xx) at the time, and when the kid showed me his horn I asked where did he get it, what it cost him..he said $150 at a pawn shop in East LA.
Obviously the horn was hot. I told Zig about it & asked who got 030..and he didn't have any clue.
