Deciphering the fender tag

Hey everyone. I just bought a '71 Fury III and am getting reaquainted with it. Can anyone tell me how to decipher the fender tag? I'm trying to find the paint code, as well as determine if it's an early or late production model, since that seems to be important when I look up parts online. Thanks!

Fender tag pictures

Here are the pics of the fender tag. I hit it with WD-40 to enhance some of the shots, so between the three, you should be able to make out all of the characters. Please let me know everything I could ever want to know about this car from this tag. Thanks again guys!

I'm 99% sure that the "C1F" is actually a "G1F", and the "CF7" is another "GF7" (the one following the paint code). Could you tell me what those two are? Does this production date qualify it as an "early" '71? Otherwise, thanks a million! You've been alot of help.

Thanks again for all of the help. I'm curious though what the A94 "Gold Duster Special Package" is.
