As I recall there were two different designs of Nervex Pro lugs - Mk1 and Mk2.

The Mk1 resembled the later Mk2 in every detail except for the little twirl on the head lugs. The Mk! version did not have that pretty "curved -x type" pattern, but ib=nstead had two short sharp prongs, a bit like a refined versions of some prongs on some Serie Legere lugs.

Certainly the Mk1 version was available in 1951..and the Mk2 came not much later. I have a Hill Special and an incredibly light Mercian Pro, from that era, both of which sport the Mk1 lugs.
