The 29-2 was the variant produced for the most years, from 1961 to 1982. To find what year a particular Model 29 gun was made, it is necessary to telephone Smith and Wesson. (For Remington or Ruger or Winchester, etc, you need only do an internet search for "Winchester serial numbers" for example, and you can quickly find what year a particular gun was made. This works for almost every company except Smith and Wesson.)
