I don't have a Lyman catalog - instead what I have is a Sheard catalog. Sorry about that.

I'll hazard a guess the sights are not numbered----yes?
I have one (had another). Both lettered as special order, both letter as target----neither carried numbered sights (both with Lyman). Jinks opines standard guns were fit with adjustable sights, and shipped. Also opines no need to number, so no number.

Does the Sheard catalog indicate some/all/none are marked (SHEARD)? (I've seen those marked SHEARD, and SHEARD PATENT (PAT)---assumed from Marble, and I have one I swear is SHEARD----and there's not a mark on it.)
