Yep, the serial numbers have it as a 1st issue altered according the Jan Stills book. Too bad, a nice rarer second issue might justify the price. Even with the pictures that you supplied, it is hard to see the old GESICHERT. JAN STILL mentioned in his book that the erasure of that marking was pretty roughly done. That is how this marking looks on my 06 navies.
