Am I understanding you correctly? Are you saying this Victory was originally .38 Special when shipped in 1945 and was later converted by C&H to .38 S&W (.38/200) for resale in the U.S.? Did you have it lettered to learn it's shipped chambering? Typically, it's the other way around, .38 S&W converted to .38 Special for the U.S. market? Unless I'm misunderstanding your comments, this makes it an unusual example.
