Chakram for discussion

Hello,

Below is a recent purchase (fagan arms) of a Sikh Chakram. 9 3/8 diameter with rounded inner edge and exterior cutting edge. The chakram is stamped with the "Sikh tree mark"

I am familiar with the sikh religion, but I am unfamiler with the "Sikh tree marking". Can someone explain this to me? Are there other examples of this mark on different weapons?

Could this be instead the symbol of the Sikh Nihang, who wear the Aad Chand symbol on their turbans? and who are well known to carry chakrams Also any thoughts on the age of this chakram?
