577 Snider LSA Co 1870

I have a London Small Arms 577 Snider dated 1870. Where the crown is on every single other Snider I've seen (except for Nepals) mine has the LSA Co stamp. No crown. The stamp is all the letters LSA Co (minus the o) stamped right on top of each other. It looks like a brand new gun. If you know verifiably any history on this or have pics of another one could you please let me know?

Heres a link to the only one I could find but theres no history there.

    The London Small Arms Co. Was a commercial manufacturer of firearms. Making many similar military rifles, as the larger British manufactures. But of better quality, for commercial sale.

    If yours is authentic, not some product of Darra Pakistan. It would be very desirable to a collector.
