It's just a guess, but all had rubber grips that covered the butt of the revolver obscuring the normal placement of the serial number.
The serial stamping under the grips satisfies the "hidden" serial number requirements of some laws.

I am not sure about serial stampings on the frame under the cylinder window on the left side, except to say that I have mostly seen them on LE contract guns.

The serial stamping in the yoke is standard.
