Well that modifies my dates back to the original 1900 to 1905. I was thinking that the borderless roundel might be a little later and a transition , but maybe not.

Yes, Dean, my conjecture, no facts to back it, is that the roundel style was done by an engraver who happened to be at Parker from 1900-1905 and when he/she left, the style left. There are a few B's also with roundels. Anybody with any other thoughts?
