Don’t think Mgs were ever serialized, even the first run of Grey and Red (in the black boxes with silver counterweights). I’ve owned 3 Mgs and none had serials, including my current black one. ---

Those things really are beautiful Yo-Yo’s, I can’t imagine why no Serial on such an exclusive release as this one. Not a lot of Throwers will ever know the feeling of being in Club Freehand Mg, congratulations ---

> [@OhioYOpro](#): > > They are serialized dude… Look on yoyo history museum… Your black one is a remake… :🙂 They do not have serial numbers. I have had the original unrecessed version in red, and the “remake” recessed version in black in my possession at the same time, neither had a number. I’m holding the halves of my red one right now, no number. No markings of any kind. Yours really isn’t any rarer than anyone else’s, I promise. And it doesnt have a serial number. Hopefully you can still enjoy it. ---

In a sense, the Official “DUNCAN” Logo on an Item IS the Serial Number. 8) ---

There are no markings at all on the body of the yoyo. Only the caps. All metal is powder/ano, no engraving or stamping. ---

I think you are confusing the ‘exhibit number’ with a serial number… the number in the museum is just an indicator of when it was added to the museum, it has nothing to do with the yo-yo itself. As confirmed many times already, there are no serial numbers on any Mg. Kyle ---

I have two Mg’s no serial number on either. Although one does have XI or IX scratched into the pad recces, before it was anodized. Maybe it was a proto, I don’t really know, but that is what I was told it was. Got it 2008 as at least it’s third owner. ---
