How old is my Colt Police Positve

I have an older Colt Police Positive in .32 Police Ctg. serial # 218XXX. Where would I look to figure out how old it is? Thanks in advance for any response.

Colt Police Positive .32 was up to # 217000 in 1926 and on #224000 in 1927.

Looks like 1926 for your gun.
