Are you sure it is a special edition and not a regular P6 that someone has customized and maybe re-finished? I'm not sure why SIG would come out with a special edition of a regular mundane German police service pistol. Does the hammer still have a notch? I am inclined to believe the 1/84 on the slide is the date of manufacture. If it is on the right side that is where it normally is, along with the serial # (at least the last 3 digits), "P6", and either "NW" or "NRW" (the state of the issuing police department). 84 is kind of an unusual number for a special run. Of course if it comes with the box and appropriate papers, then that could help alleviate my skepticism. I hope you can get pictures up.
