Yes numbers match. I plan on stripping it down. If I find any other marks or numbers I'll post them. Many thanks to all who have contributed to this thread!!

Too ammo makers like S&B(Sellier & Bellot) have French beginnings where Louis Sellier was a Frenchman escaping the French Revolution to Prague where he & Frenchman Bellot hitch their Ammo making carts. Then I think they sold it to a Bohemian?

Without a Perron on the water-table, I still contend the probability is high that it was either an Austrian or German mechanic that sourced a Belgian Pinfire platform & completed it.
