are you asking about the "Colt's patent firearms mfg. co."?  You don't have to be able to CLEARLY read the roll mark. The aforementioned rollmark goes all the way to the rear of the trip sear pin and the newer version.....Colt's firearms division..........does not.
not sure if this linky will be hot, but you can copy/paste
