Tharpo nailed it. That's a p not an n.

I had 5 different people look at it and everyone said it was a n , what`t a n look like if that`s a p

If you think a "p" is confusing, look at the "Q"!

You're right it can be a bit misleading, I enclose a table of suffixes for your records.

Best.

Joe,

They say pictures are worth a thousand words.

Someone on the Forum posted this great compendium of scriptic suffixes correlated to the year of manufacture.

Very helpful.

Here it is. Probably the most helpful document I've seen in years. And also correlates years with inspection stamps.

John
