Excel shotguns were made by Crescent, Crescent-Davis, Iver Johnson, and J. Stevens. If it was made by one of the first two, the number probably isn't a true serial number and the exact age cannot be determined. There are a couple of experts who MIGHT be able to place one of the other two into a range of +/- 5 years.
Excel was a trade name used by HD Folsom Arms and Iver Johnson Arms and Cycle Works on shotguns made for Montgomery Wards.

I have a 16 guage Excel single shot. At the base of the trigger guard is the # 90425XG. It was given to my father-in-law about 70 years ago. Other than that I don't know the exact age of the gun. -- Montgomery Wards -- EXCEL was a trade name used by Montgomer Wards on shotguns they retailed c.1900-1920. Some of the shotguns were made by Iver Johnson, some were sold to Wards by H&D Folsom (and were probably Crescent manufacture).
