Difference between iPod G5 versions

When one wants to buy a fifth generation iPod, how can one tell it's the second version of the G5 or the first one?

Is there some kind of mark on the box?

I don't think you can tell it from the box, I think you'll have to open it and look for the serial number on the iPod itself. Quoting GadgetLocker

You can distinguish the Fifth Generation iPod (Late 2006) from the original Fifth Generation iPod by the last three digits of the serial number. The Fifth Generation iPod (Late 2006) serial number's last three digits will be one of the following: WU9, WUA, WUB, or WUC.
