I'd like to see a photo if possible of the 9.8mm Auto. the only reference I have shows a reduced size Government Model that is marked "Automatic Colt Calibre .38 Rimless Smokeless." The barrel is marked ".38/9.8mm."

This was supposedly made up in 1910 for possible acceptance of the Roumanian government, possibly for Bulgaria and Serbia.
