Would you please elaborate your explanation? I do not understand why there is a new catalogue number over the old one. It looks like it is the same number...
This could not be a first edition. The first stamper of 1901 was modified with a raised ring surrounding the label area and stamped in catalogue number to create the stamper for this disc in 1903 or a little later.
Does a stamper II copy without CO. marking exist of this disc?

Удивительно, сколько иностранных маршей продолжали исполнять военные оркестры СССР! Это же немецкий марш "Ordre de Bataille", op. 20! Композитор - Юлиус Ленхардт (Julius Lehnhardt). Как я понимаю, обозначение взято ещё из царского времени?
Columbia were using laminated pressings before 1923. 1923 was the year they introduced 'New Process' records, in which the surface material was very fine, producing quiet surfaces (also helped by over-buffing of the metalwork). But well before 1923, I think...
Lamination ended for Columbia in Britain when they merged with HMV to become EMI in 1931. But in France and other countries, both HMV (Voix de son Maitre) and Columbia used lamination much later.
It's worth mentioning that some Muztrests are laminated.
