Do you think it is a replacement stencil error rather than a change in factory markings?

Here are more from the same lot. Their characteristics suggest to me they may be New, Old Stock.
Each one has the same 1943 base married to a younger 1944 top. Along with the atypical “Made in Canada” of General Steel Works. The leather gaskets are as new, the insides bright with their coating. The stencil used appears consistent across the lot.
Are they factory new or repainted? Lang, how can I say other than to view the item itself?
