To add to dfariswheel's excellent information:
The Crown/N is a commercial nitro proof. If the pistol was taken into service, there will also be an ordnance acceptance stamp next to the proof. That stamp is a Crown/letter, the letter being in ornate script.
There was a fourth called the Stenda, Stendawerke being the original designer.
The Becker & Holländer is the most commonly encountered, from what I've seen.
