1918 DWM Proof Marks

Roy,
I enjoyed seeing your Danzig police proofed P08. A similar sunburst/D is found in similar location on DWM P08 #2645m dated 1917/1920 with an added police sear and mag safety.
WOL (Costanzo) does not show this Danzig police marking in this place (toggle) so I would presume this placement is unusual and it was nice to see another example. P08 2645m also is stamped with PTV/E on barrel right and E/43,E/49 on barrel left.
FWIW similar to your P08, #2645m was a LP08 and its new barrel also was marked with a Ã¢??4Ã¢?Â on bottom Here is a picture of the Danzig proof if I can work the system.
John
