I suspect it dates earlier than you list. The crown was added to the Liege ELG proofmark in 1893, and a great many such anonymous "Bulldog" revolvers were made in Belgium until curtailed by WW-1 in 1914.

Caliber is probably .320 European, aka .32 Short Colt in USA, which is very similar but slightly smaller in diameter than the more common .32 S&W.
