Nuts are OK & needed only a filing down to remove burrs. Notice the 'dimples' on the stub in the 2nd photo? Only short axle end had these. Other end would have been done by someone else & I guess they had other ideas.
Tony,

Looks like the stub has been worked over with a centre punch, creating raised dimples. This is sometimes done to give the inner bearing race a bit of grip to prevent it from rotating.

HTH,
Hanno
