I recently obtained a set of Peerless Cuffs, patented Feb 20, 1912 and Nov 23, 1915. I believe they are therefore known as the "1915 model". They are nickel plated, have no serial number. I noticed that one of the cuffs has "The Peerless Handcuff Co Springfield Mass." stamped on the outside of the cuff AS WELL AS on the inside in between the cheek plates. Obviously a manufacturing error. How rare is this? Does the double stamping add substantially to the collector value?

mirror side used to set the depth of the stamp before production.

Value would depend on condition.
put em on zBay with some good pictures and the market will decide.
