So >>3245-46.59<< where the - denotes inclusion not a datastring. 3245 - 3246.59; so on a 2 barrel set why abbreviate that and not just stamp 3245 - 3246.59 to show it was inclusive. By the way, what year did the Brit issued Ferlach maker's number drop by the wayside.

Cheers,

Proof number is a way of masking the actual maker in order to prevent preferential treatment @ the proof facility.

Why shorten the long stamping? Less work, of course smile
The Brit left after a decade. So about 1955 and afterwards some makers kept the old system while others dropped it.

Indeed, less work. But just as the title of the thread suggests, much confusion.
