I could be wrong but I see a G in front of the numbers. That would make it a 127 from 1919.

My son took the upside down image and flipped it to read correctly. We both say it is an A. Very pretty machine, have fun with it!

Anyway, once you get it all cleaned up, you should be able to tell with a magnifying glass, try different angles!

OK, I am back into my own account. A few posts back I mentioned that after cleaning a little, I could see that it was a G....it was stamped very close to the edge. I just took more pictures that I think will show it better.
They almost missed the plate with the G..it is stamped very close to the edge.
