While his key is stamped with a code, that is not the direct digit code you might normally find on an American Lock key. His has a blind code and that can be determined because the stamped code has a zero in it. American Locks do not have a zero depth.

My understanding of the US Set marking is that it indicates that there is more than one lock keyed alike in a set. This does not indicate MK'ing although the lock may be part of a master keyed system.
