Default Red Head pad

Those of you who know me know that my forte' is L C's, so I pose this question for those who would know.
Today I purchased a VH 12 at a yard sale that I couldn't pass up because of the condition . It's a 1906 gun and is in the serialization book as configured. However, it sports a Red Head pad that the wear is consistent with the rest of the gun. Could this pad, given the age of the gun, be correct, and if not, whose pad would have been correct? This is a "family" gun, and the former owner has had it in his possession for 45 years since he inherited it from his grandfather.
Thanks in advance for your opinions.
