Last month RKmesa shared photos here of a very nicely engraved 66-1 with the initials GN (or perhaps CN) which presumably are the initials of the engraver.
Tasteful Snub - an Engraved Model 66-1
I recently acquired a P&R 629 with the same initials in about the same place as on the 66-1. This one has some differences from the 66-1 in that the engraving on the side plate has covered the logo and on the left side the engraving extends under the thumb piece, first time I've seen that I think.
There must be more out there by GN (CN) and it would be great to know more about the engraver and see more of his/her pieces if anyone has one.
