1932 briggs body tag

Hi guys, I started working on my 1932 5 window body and cleaned up the briggs body tag. Does this number give any details about the body or is it just a production serial number?

Just a body production number, not that of the vehicle itself. Given that most of the standard coupe bodies were built by Ford and had no tags (although some plants did stamp their own body numbers on the #1 floor cross sill [usually on the left side]), the magnitude of the number is not especially indicative of timing unless it is very low (3 digits or less) in which case it would likely have been mounted on a fairly early chassis.
