Default Devangari inscription help

Hi all.

Was wondering if anyone could help with this inscription - devangari.

I can read ‘sri baldev ji sahai’ and ‘Kramank’ with four numbers?

Appreciate the help

This is a typical Marwar hilt and I think it looks exactly the same (attached).
The inscription on marwari. Such hilt often have an abbreviated "kramank", but I do not believe that this is some kind of inventory number, usually the year is indicated.
Who the inscription is dedicated to, it seems that it will forever remain a mystery
