Help ID my Gibson Les Paul

I have an old Les Paul, which I was trying to date. It has serial number 416307 stamped into the wood at the back of the headstock. Based on the Blue Book of Electric Guitars, this serial number is within a range during 1966 which is labeled "No Entries".

Does this mean that Gibson didn't make any guitars with this serial number? Is it a non-Gibson copy? If it's a copy, why would they use a serial number that Gibson didn't use?
