Dating cue
1832 records the original pattern engraving, not the manufacture of this later piece; the bow-and-quiver trade mark was registered in 1880.
Notes
The source rejects a formerly cited circa-1927 introduction for the diamond stamp, citing earlier variants; no single use interval is assigned to this example.
