Hello;
I recently bought a revolver from the late 1800's that bears Proof Marks that are distinctly from Belgium. All but one have been explained through repeated searches on the internet;
The rear of the cylinder bears a Proof Mark that consists of a: Crown over L (Crown L)
From what I've seen MANY revolvers bear both the Liege Proof (Crown ELG) and the Crown L on the cylinder.
Any help would be appreciated on the meaning of the Crown L.
Thanks
