Are the G's on the screw heads a type of signature?

They look very much like subtle signature G's to me. I have seen a lot of engravers who did it as a practice.

I am really surprised at the scrolls in the first picture. It looks like pattern lines were traced out and all of them were engraved. Three D engraving would accent them, but they should have been visible as to top and bottom layer. That would have greatly added to the look. At least they would have looked like overlaying vines.
