Default Need Help With Markings on Barrel Lug

Hello all, I am trying to determine the markings on my Parker 12ga barrel lug. The shotgun was made in 1875, and I know that many of the later markings are not present on these early plain steel models.

Having said that, there are two distint markings on the lug. The first is an "S". It is very different from a "2", which my first thought, and it is sideways next to an "O" or a "0"- not sure if it is the number zero or letter O.

I have checked every resource I can find; I'm hoping someone can help me understand what this means. I can post a picture if that would help (this is my first thread, so not sure how much to post).

Much appreciated in advance!
