What kind of flutes do you own?

[abateau1]

I have a Gemeinhardt M2 silver, a Muramatsu EXII, an Altus 1007 and a Haynes Q2. I'm a beginner but I love the differences in tone and playability in each flute. I originally owned a cheap Gemeinhardt and a Yamaha 221 but sold them for the Muramatsu.

My main flute is a Muramatsu AD but I have a Pearl and Armstrong for backup.

I am requesting assistance in identifying the model of a piccolo that I have owned for at least 44 years (therefore manufactured prior to ~1971). It appears to be silver, or silver plated. On the head receiver of the barrel are the following inscriptions:
<...C...>
MFD BY
Gemeinhardt (in script)
-inc-
Elkhart, Ind.
9679

Please help me identify the composition and model, and any history regarding this piece. It would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you.

Model: ? (How do I find out? Written on my flute somewhere?)

There is no easy answer. Some flutes do not have a model imprinted.
