The best I can make out the symbol on the other side of the serial number is the one that corresponds with the 10 on your chart. Really hard to tell but that looks like it.
On the bayonet the end is ground off so you can't tell. The end of the handle has some numbers but it is so wore that you can tell what they are at all.

Cleaned up all the pieces/parts.
Non-Salvagable: Receiver (Safety)  Barrel (Cosmetic) Someone used vice grips to remove the barrel, hence why it was loose. Salvage for use on a Nagoya Series 3.: Lower stock Bolt assembly Rear sight ladder Buttplate Upper band/nose for stock. Lower sling swivel All of the above were cleaned up and rust blued in preparation to install them They are currently soaking in oil after bluing. I took a few pictures before bluing, and I'll take a few more after I take the parts out of the oil bath Spares/available, left in original finish: Trigger guard Trigger Sear Lower Band Bolt Release Ejector All Action/Receiver screws/springs Rear sight Tangent. .

to bad you couldn't restore it, but the parts will be welcomed by others!

It's like an organ donor! It will live on through others!
I keep thinking back to the era it was brought here. A wall hangar was only useful as a trophy or a reminder. Most of those GIs had gone through The Great Depression and bringing back a rifle like that would have been a tool to put meat on the table. Cut it or use it in the elements doesn't matter as long as it can function for the purpose. You hear about a lot of Mauser that got the same treatment I think they even have a special name, a "duffel cut" where you cut it so it would fit into your duffle bag.

The parts before and after bluing.
Overall, they cleaned up well. I tried a few different techniques, and the color came out a very deep blue/black. First picture is the parts stripped of paint and soaking in denatured alcohol before bluing. Second picture is the parts draining from the oil bath. The last three are after having all of the oil removed.
