It should also say Hamilton Watch Co Lancaster PA inside too.

The last four digits of the serial number in the back are stamped onto the back of the center part of the case. So if the back has number 123456 then the case should have 3456 stamped on it. Additionally, the bezel has the last four digits scratched on the inside but they are Roman numerals and you should see III IV V VI.HandyDanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02083270175066343104noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5855696413978429801.post-11155726736682261912017-08-05T13:35:23.788-07:002017-08-05T13:35:23.788-07:00Dan, I have a Square B with the same engraved pat...Dan, I have a Square B with the same engraved patterns shown above, but the inscription on the back is December 25, 1929.
