Halos on Germany Stamps

Hi Chris, Halos are a complex subject. If a pistol was marked before bluing, those marks will not show halos, if marks were applied after bluing, the halo effect should be visible. Since finishing and marking sequences varied model to model, and in some cases, year to year, you really need very specialized knowledge to determine what is correct. There is no "one size fits all" answer to your question.
Regards, Norm
