Default M1917 w/British Proofs?

Hi All,
I recently purchased a M1917 which has in addition to the standard US markings, what appear to be British proof markings. Each cylinder has a crown over a coupled CP. the right side of the barrel has an NP, a symbol, then .45”, then .900”, then 7 Tons. So the question is: are these British proofs, and what would that tell me about this revolver’s history. The serial number places the year of manufacture as 1918. There are no import markings. Any information is greatly appreciated.
Mark
