Serial numbers of all 2000/3000/4000 Ford tractors made from 1965-1975 could start with an "A", a "B" or a "C", depending on which factory it was assembled at. A serial number that starts with an "A" means that it was assembled at the plant in Antwerp, Belgium. A serial number that starts with a "B" means that it was assembled at the plant in Basildon England (UK). A serial number that starts with a "C" means that it was assembled at the plant in Michigan in the USA.

5C09E doesn't look like a valid model number or a valid production code.
B803440 does look to be a valid format for a Basildon England serial number, but it's a pretty high number, probably not a 1965-1975 5000 serial number.
C235 looks ot be a European date code, as they used a different order than here in the US. It looks liek March 23rd of some year that ends in a 5,but since we don't have a valid model number and that serial numebr looks so high, I wouldn't even want to venture a decade.
