A crown and the letters "GR", together with the date 1940, are typical markings one might find on military issue items from Great Britain during WW2.

The letters "GR" under the crown, stand for "George Rex", or King George.

If there is also a marking that looks like an arrow pointing, that is another indication that the axe is of military origin. The British have used a "broad arrow" marking on military equipment since the 1700s.
