I have one of those Lazio, with lug but no sign of any back mark. Here is another of mine which in "Litchfield's" book is listed as ev10, I'd like opinions on whether there is a misprint in his description where he states the letters to be S A V. hard to see exactly in the book I have, but as you see in my photo, the letters are clearly S V A. You will also see that it is gold plated as opposed to his thought that it was possibly Silver plated originally. ( which now begs the question, if militia or volunteer, why Gold and not Silver?) Regards, David J.
