Thanks Bill. Well that narrows it down somewhat. I am working on getting pictures of the proof stamps and anything else that might help narrow it down further. I appreciate your help.

I was able to get a few more pics of the proof marks on the barrel flats from the owner. I am not sure if this adds any more information. Thanks for your continued help.
