Marx

hello everyone, trainfam here

I am a little puzzled, I have a Marx 1404, it’s your average everyday 1404 with neat features and details. However, it seems to have a “cryptic message” on the base. It appears to be a stamp, possibly a ink stamp? It is a little faded so it’s hard to understand, but it looks like it says $3.58 (possibly). Any idea on why this is on here?

It is the price tag from when it was new. Such stamps are/were reasonably common to find on a variety of items, not just train related.

Thank you for the help, I was thinking that that was what it was, but I was still confused considering how companies usually put price stickers on the boxes.
