Dwight, You are correct. Over the years I've seen several of these that were over stamped in the q,r,s & t alpha commerical range. As I recall, one of the luger books call these "crown" suffix alphas the "Riff" contract. Supposably ordered by a North African terrorist group and never paid for, so just sold thru normal commerical channels. Why suffix was overstamped, is a still a mystry. Perhaps the original serials were already recorded as sold or already duplicated, so had to be overstamped to avoid duplication. TH
