Mike,
Really didn't notice the stamp until I took it out into the sunshine for pics a while ago.  After looking at it through a glass, I feel that it is a stamp of some kind and not pitting or flaking that looks like a stamp.  When and where it was stamped, I have no idea.
Could be a C or a G.  I was wandering about the size of it too.  (I guess size does matter)   ::)
I'm not going to try to pull the adapter out.  Some guy whacked it in there 150 years or so ago, and I don't feel right pulling it out just to satisfy my curiosity.  It needs to stay where it is.
Thanks to all.
Dan
