This is not uncommon... the stamps were often times filed off when they were struck/finished at the factory.

I weigh my barrels and compare the weights to the chart in McIntosh to determine where my barrels fall in the number category. Just bought an early A project gun, barrels were unmarked, weighed right to the ounce as #3 barrels, no fuss, no muss.
