I wanted to see if anyone else has came across this. It is approximately 1951 K-22 in very nice condition numbers matching. But it has a lazy ampersand “&” stamped in the yoke just below the assembly number.

Has anyone seen this before?

Inspectors pretty much used any random stamp they chose. But the same one each time and their name was linked to the stamp.

Does it have the satin blue finish common for 1951 or is it "Bright" blue ?

Its more satin than bright blue. I found it really neat looking to see a clean perfect lazy ampersand stamped on the yoke.
