Being that the number in question is in the Thousands spot, the chance of it being a part mixup from another D grade gun is out of the possibility, which means it is just human error.

An engraver I know told me about a D grade Parker he recut once where the Dog had 5 legs. no joke.
I bet the dog's name was Lucky!
