I requested additional fotos but considering the price & knowing the kat doesn't know that he has, I would say he probably won't comply to my request.

The top-rib text reads >>Wm. R. Schaefer Boston - Superior Quality<<, maybe that is where the rungs are quality originated?
Inverted APUN in French is 541.

Just thumbin' thru a lot of chaff, it appears that ole Schaefer had several lower numbers, more than likely in the 2nd Lindner Series, that were stamped >>Saxony<<. Evidently, Suhl didn't know exactly where it was located & had to commission a Surveyor, or multiple Surveyors, to define where they were as Suhl used say 4 different positions for their Country of Origin terms.

The Schaefer & Sohn - Lindner sourced A&D Body Action dates to about 1885. About this time, Schaefer was peddlin' W. Richards platforms in two sizes - >>The Standard<< Model at $185 and >>The Premier<< at $300. So >>Superior Quality<< on Lindner guns may have an origin @ Schaefer??? Lots of moving pieces; i.e..... Herding Cats....
Also, E.C. Schmidt was an apprentice @ Schaefer & Son & Schmidt sort of picked up the pieces when the Schaefer & Son firm faltered.
