What's this all about, then?

Looking at the picture of the frame SN, my impression is that the original serial number has been ground off and a new number applied. Can you determine if this is true? Three of my Finnish Parabellums have the original SN ground off and replaced, and all of them came directly from Finland, so I am confident they were modified in that country. I have no idea why this would have been done.

Can you tell what the stamping below the frame serial number is?

It appears to be a crown, a very unusual marking for that area, I think.
