Corey, The crown "RC" revision commision stamp would have been applied at the factory during the original assembly. The Crown RC in the position shown on your pistol would indicate a minor flaw in the hardening of the reciever. The reblue on your pistol would most likely have been done in the United States by the proud vet who brought this pistol back. He wanted a nice finish to go with the very nice civilian holster he probably purchased. It is a nice piece and speaks of a pistol probably used in two world wars and brought back for further use by a proud veteran.
regards, heinz
