the early style engraving is toward the rearend of the side plates..it was not well liked by most and the engraving then was centered in the side plates...i think you can pull up pictures here on this site to see the differance in the 2 types of engraving early and later..i do not know why but you will see guns that are more rarer than the no 4 grade for sell than you do the no 4.....hope you find the info on this site to show you the difference in the grades..dont im sure some of the fellas here can direct us to it.... charlie ..
