As a result of your multiple discussion comments, I have rechecked my Item Number 16 of my description which is listed in the initial post above.
Using a better magnifying glass, I find that what I had listed as a "Small eagle on the left rear side of the barrel" is a three digit number
( ?55 ) under a three line stamp, or eagle. The first digit of the three digit number is not at all clear, but looks like it may be a six ( 6 ). I'm just too much of a novice to be sure.
Thanks again to John D, Thor and all of you for sharing your expertise with me. Virg Mueller
