Thanks Norm,
of course you are correct about the rear toggle, sometimes one misses the tree for the forest!

Looking with a different light I could see the partial crown over
C,B,or G(I can never decide which script letter) would be similar to
the Crown/G we see on many early police lugers.

But the "W" still throws me.
