1906 American Eagle barrel markings

BILL · 09-01-2001, 02:14 PM

I have seen several 1906 American Eagles in 7.65mm and there are different stampings on each of them. My question to anyone who owns one or has a reference to one: What, exactly, is stamped on the barrel? I have seen proofs, serial number, land sizes, and acceptance marks. Not all have been standard. It is my belief that some might not have been original. Can anyone give me a good reference to location and size of known factory stamps on a 1906 American Eagle 7.65mm made by DWM for commercial import into the US? Thanks. Bill
