Promising M1906 Navy...

The old Gesichert appears to have been partially ground off. SOme residue of the old marking remains. The new Gesichert is in the Uppercase format. This is one variation. This variation is often stamped and not Pantographed. There appears to be some haloing? There also appears to be bluing in the letters. Tony can you confirm that? Does the Gesichert appear to be the product of a single stamp or was it the product of individual letter stamps?

My little area of research.

Thanks, Heinz
