what era is the warrented superior one i cant find one like it

Here's a quote from one site
On the warranted superior saw...Outside of England, the WS medallion was used on second line or lesser quality saws, but in England it was used on first quality high end saws, and was a mark of quality. England used them from 1819 to 1878. The banner says Dieu et Mon Droit, the literal translation is "God and my right", referring to the divine right of kings.

and an actual example of the medallion on a saw; a very nice piece.
