***************************
Providence From the Proof Marks on the Slide Chin (last pic):

Top Mark (Explosion) is the Proof House in Kiel (West Germany)

Second Mark looks like Frog sticking out tongue ???
Does match the slide chin picture in this link:

N stamp Not sure what this references

JJ stamp = 1988 year of manufacture

"The Eagle-N mark signifies that the firearm was proofed in Germany (or West Germany, depending on when the firearm was proofed), while the “N” indicates that the firearm was proofed using a Nitro Beschuss load. “Beschuss” translates as “bombardment,” “shelling,” or “firing” depending on context, and “nitro” is short for “nitrocellulose,” a highly flammable compound used to creates pressures inside the firearm higher than standard gun powder."

Copied and pasted to better explain the "N" mark.

The "JJ" date stamp indicates the Köln proof house.

Definitely a good one for collectors of true German built, assembled and tested. I love my 226. It was the first hand gun I ever bought and remains my favorite to shoot.
