The short answer is that it was in proof sometime before 1989 after the barrels were opened approximately 3 gauges. As everyone said, you must measure the walls. It could be very thin as reproofed, and may have been honed again for some reason. My bet is that you will find some very thin barrel walls at some point, particularly in the front half.
