It's a 4 digit number molded into the sidewall. You can see it is made by a removable mold insert. The first 2 digits are the week of the year - the last 2 digits denote the year - i.e., 1014 = the tenth week of 2014.

Here's a few pictures I found on the web that show how the date of manufacture is displayed:

There is a 50/50 chance that the date stamp is mounted toward the inside of the trailer. But for some reason most are mounted that way. What I am trying to say is be prepared to crawl under because the spare may not be the same date as the other tires.
