Simson 'S' Code, $9,000
Lookie here
https://auctions.morphyauctions.com/...LOT511517.aspx I was shocked, but pleased to see that this Simson sold for 9K - that is one of the higher amounts I've seen. The average Simson (decent bluing, no unit marking, not an S, not a dated), they seem to sell for around $2k - to $4K Plus for this is the S 'code' (they made Simson & Co toggles at the same time as S) - so I am not sure still if the S was for police? However, of the 105 marked S on the toggle, my 755 records have 105 S code. Yet only 23 with known sear or sear and mag safety? The numbers tell me that the vast majority went into service unmarked, perhaps unit buys? Ed
