The proof marks are there you just have to look at the higher resolution photos to see them. Here is just that part of the picture cropped and resized so I can post them here. Do you know why one would have the + mark and not the other?

Thanks. They are Droop Eagle 63 which are correct. Interesting note is that if you look at the 5's in the SN, you will see the vertical line is proportionally a bit long. This was a characteristic of the dies that Mauser used in 1935. Rarely if ever seen on other dates.

There's a DE63 S-92 on gunbroker.com... non matching scarce early K Date (1934) mag... right side receiver stamps look kind of light/soft to me. Your rig with matching mags has more value obviously.
