Dave, what can you extrapolate from a blank circle? There is a sun stamped on the opposite side as is a “KG” & “P”.

Everything about those barrels say they were completed late in the Remington era -- the PARKER GUN WORKS in the OVERLOAD PROVED stamp -- the Remington date code KG K = May G = 1938 -- the serial number on the left barrel flat -- and the marks we assume to be Remington inspector marks.
