Interesting Code

Who can break it down?

Date's obvious--Jan 86. Factory, no idea what that is. Should be consistent from 85-98 but obviously that's wacky.

You don't see too many examples from that early date/factory code era. Very nice. 

Also, the box is Fonseca.

EABTH and 0 are probably distributor or vendor stamps of some sort.

I have a similar box from 1987

Although both are in the same font unlike yours, although your "A.B.T.H" is in the identical font as the OP box. Clearly they left Cuba that way. So perhaps Cuba was stamping distributor info themselves? 

May be a coincidence but both end in "TH" also.
