Was it a time period, model number or both occurrence?

The medallions should be vertical, are they loose enough to turn?
K frame Magnas didn't come along until 15 years after dished gold medallion usage was discontinued on wood stocks which all looked like these at the top: "Service Stocks".
Me thinks the stocks are not S&W made and the medallions were added.
