Here's some info on your inspectors proof. I found this on another forum.

The shape of the crown and letter M will tell if it is naval issue. The naval acceptance mark consists of a straight sided Hohenzollern crown over a block letter M.

An inspector's mark as found on issue parts would be a round sided king's crown over a script letter
