They're the classic colored-dial Master combination locks.
They're all locked but not locked to anything.
There is no serial number that I can see.
It just says "Hardened" on the hasp.

Is there a method for finding the combination?

Every single one of those Master combination
padlocks left the factory with a six digit number
etched on the back in the center of the circular
depression on the back of the lock case...

If the locks had key override function then the
number of the registered key would by etched
below the serial number...

That serial number matches the number on
the code tag which came stuck to the back
of the lock...

You could take the locks to a real locksmith
who has invested in the code software and
can look up the serial number to see if a
combination is listed but not every locksmith
pays to be able to access that information...
