Default G date Banner

All........ just came into posession of this strange Banner toggled G date. The reciever has E/211 proofs, the barrel has E/154, the stop lug has E/154. The frame serial # is 1948x, and all the parts match, including the grips. The style and font of the numbers are the same, even to the toggle pin. The overall condition is not the best but it is the same all over, looking to be all together since it was made. The mag is a silver bodied, aluminum bottom, with only a S/42 proof and no numbers. Page 136 of Don Hallocks new book states "Confusing Exceptions" that may give some insight to this piece. There probably will be several opinions, but that is why I'm posting these scans. Thanking all of you in advance...

God bless........ Myky
