Henrik, thank you for the data! Military Mausers have two different types of Waffenamt eagle markings. The earlier eagles have wings that are shown in a downward position or Droop Wings, thus DE. The later eagle marks are stick figure wings that are straight out from the eagle body, so they are called stick or straight wings, thus SE.
