One marked 00 would be suspect. I've never seen one so marked. The Parker Story has quite a discussion of buttplates.

I can’t imagine Parker Bros. ever finding it necessary to make a butt plate smaller than the “0” marked butt plate for the 00-frame guns. I have a “0” marked original butt plate that is actually too small for the butt of my 00-frame 28 gauge Skeet gun. I can’t comment on the 000-frame .410 Parkers as I don’t own one of those.

Don't skeleton buttplates have a serial number stamped on the inside? Dean, I have a 12 gauge 1/2 frame skeleton buttplate that is much smaller in length than the butt of my .410 skeet gun.

They are normally stamped with the serial number. Ssbp sizes also correspond with the same sizes of the dhbp. But they are not marked as to size.

Parker butt plate pictures
image3 (1).jpg
image2 (1).jpg image0 (3).jpg image1 (3).jpg image0 (4).jpg The smaller skeleton plate has a 73930 number near the bottom screw hole on the inside of plate. The larger skeleton plate has no number on it. These plates have been in the family for years as they belong to father in-law. He passed in 1996 and was a parker collector and WWII vet. |

That unmarked plate is very interesting. The overall shape of the plate looks parker, but the points on the inside are not normal for Parker. It may have been a very custom high grade piece, or simply not from a Parker. The dogs head plates look like they may be original. The color looks correct.
