It is stamped in the center of the shell, by the Normandy mark. Its only on the lesser Sport models, not the Luxe Competitions. Check for the only numbers in the format: MM YY. I personally think Amanda's bike is older than she first guessed, because I remember later Peugeots coming with small flange atom hubs, not large flange Normandy. Mavic dated their older tubular rims (and maybe clinchers?) the same way, with the date under the manufacturer and model marks.
