Sealed (Unopened) iPhone
A typical iPhone Serial number: 7T727XYZWH8
Using the above as an example
digits 1 to 3 (7T7) = Year / Batch code
digits 4 to 5 (27) = Week of manufacture
digits 6 to 8 (XZY) = Unique identifier part of the S/N
digits 9 to 11 (WH8) = 8Gb model
Field test mode has been disabled, so try finding out if its been produced in weeks 1-9. That's probably your best bet. Mine says 88, which makes me assume it starts in week 88. If your first two digits are between 88 and 97 you're good.
