Default GMH 2 Pounder Production Numbers

Hi All - 2 Pdr experts. On the subject of Aust - GMH guns I believe between 865 and 1000 were produced, ( strangely no definitive 2Pdr Aust book has been attempted? ) In my endeavours at restoring one I've noticed what I'm guessing at, as Trail production No.s located on the drawbar, 5" from the Handspike fitting, the numbers are read from the breech. Between the chalk marks.
I'm working on '271', I have '356' spare, and a gun down south has '278', I did try and sandpaper this section on the gun at the Fremantle Museum - but was moved on.
Anyone like to check theirs ?
