One strong possibility is that "r908" refers to a year in the Republican Calendar (also known as the French Revolutionary Calendar), which was used in France from 1793 to 1805 and briefly in 1871 during the Paris Commune. In this system, years were denoted with an "R" or "An" (for Année, meaning "year" in French) followed by a number. For example, "Year IX" (or R9) corresponded to 1800–1801 in the Gregorian calendar. If "r908" follows this convention, it would likely mean "Year 908" in the Republican Calendar. To translate this to the Gregorian calendar: The Republican Calendar began on September 22, 1792 (Gregorian), which was Year I. Adding 908 years to 1792 gives us roughly 2700–2701 in the Gregorian calendar, assuming the calendar system continued hypothetically beyond its historical use.

Interesting. I have seen dates start with an i or a j, but not an r. The i and j were later replaced with a 1, essentially adding a thousand years to our date.
