We're all aware that certain makers put design numbers on their pieces -- Boucher and Sphinx, for example (each uses 4 digits). Is anyone aware of other makers that use design numbers, with or without signatures? Personally, I'm particularly curious about a maker(s) that used 5 digits. Any number of numbers would be welcome.
I'm err...... counting on everyone to add a comment or two 🙂

Boucher and Sphinx are the ones I'm familiar with. I have seen some of the pieces with the 5 number (no letters), but to my knowledge they have not been identified. Sorry.

Counting my blessings to have a couple of responses 😇
Looks like input on this puzzle would be useful for other people too!

Do you have a photo with a example?

Here's the little guy. Approximately 2" panther. The finish is a little unusual -- not entirely shiny, not entirely matte. It's close to satin-finish indoor wall paint. Not a 5-star photo, but my desk phone stand is handy for quick pix.
I have at least one other pin with 5 numbers but I'll have to look around for it.
