Hi
Lot of brass with imperial crown are on old light cases
I think that Polte was Imperial manufacture controler and it's the official stamp

 

[doctor]

Hi

Doctor has given the correct answer.

THIS pattern of Crown was reservated to Polte-Magdeburg Controlers .
Karlsruhe had an other Pattern.

Rheinmetall had a crown too.
