If you post how many patent numbers are shown, it is likely the age range can be gotten from Bob Miller's book.

I see 4 long patent numbers and the ever popular "patent pending" I didn't know that Pflueger didn't ID their reels. It also says "level wind" and what looks like" Anti Backlash' I don't have the book. I thought it just might be hard to find amidst the patina.

Posting photos from each side would help considerably and remove guesstimates.
Love those Open Face Spinning Reels! (Especially ABU & ABU/Zebco)

Now you've piqued my interest. Are you sure it's Pflueger? Photos, please.

some decent photos from each side and the front can sure narrow it down
I love to get old reels, work on them until they run as smooth as silk and the take them fishing using pre-1960 plugs, mostly surface fishing for Largemouths after dark.
