The arrow mark is known to military collectors as the Broad Arrow. It was used by the British since the 1600's to indicate government property. The image I linked to (I hope) illustrates a few different versions of the Broad Arrow in use.
Hope this helps a bit.
: Hi again,
: the mark which I saw as a small crown, could it be a small arrow? I just read about it on Alex R. Nichols Pages.
: How does this mark look exactly? It seems not to be a symmetric arrow, isn't it?
