Great reply as always Porter, but weren't all the military sets in nickel or silver, not gold?
That sure looks like a silver old type to me.

Maybe your monitor settings are messed up. I see plate loss on the edges of the cap. Otherwise it looks silver.
Ok, I thought I read this somewhere else, might not be all that credible since it is just a post on this site though I guess I took it to be definitive because it came from mr-razor. It is the last post on this thread:

Hm. Any thoughts to why mine has a j serial number but no stamp?
It is rather odd that you say the bottom of your guard plate doesn't have the "PROPERTY U.S. ARMY" inscription, as I don't think I've ever seen a J-series razor that didn't have one. But it's possible that they just missed it -- either through an error or in rushing to keep up with production. I've seen some stamps that were extremely faint, though. How sure are you that there's nothing there?
