No for me is no incorrect, when the paper change the owner and the dagger are saled to other, You will never know what for dagger were brought back by the GIs. So its like it mentioned FP in previous paper statement, in Soldbuch and other oficial papers, there is unfullended information, because in the papers are only numbers to sample soldier have a rifle with 8145 number, the letter of series were not added, as when the producer made 5 production strings from letter a-e, in the bunch are 5 rifles of serial number 8145, which rifle have the soldier?? Thats the problem by similar certificate papers. So when a german bayonet 467, it could be SG98/05 with 467 numbering, same as Carl Eickhorn 39 with 467b or 44asw, 467aa. There is too minor detailed info, so it could be not linked. Only by owning the piece with paper from war in one collection for 70 years and totally confirmed that the piece were never changed. best regards,Andy
PS You could look to list of RSHA presented by Joe W. Rauff got there in 1942 a P08 pistol, with serial number 9514 or so, it was Mauser production or byf production, or it was a older Luger? where is letter of series? is this a commerzial contract? You could not use similar info as is it not enough info to determine a certain pistol.
