I got a good look at this mark. I am going to try and get a better image of it here in a second if I do I will post it. I know what it is though. I can see it perfectly with a jewelers glass. It is two fish swimming in opposite directions. one on top and one on bottom. The top one is swimming to the left the bottom to the right. They are very detailed fish for how small they are. I will see if I can get a clear picture. It has two screens on the inside and the spring for the handle is kind of cool. It is like wrapped metal. My husband called it a leaf spring.
