Two of these keyboards were found in this configuration from 1987. Point of sale keyboards at some hardware store or something. All the custom keys are two piece versions. This keyboards part number is a standard 1390131 (ID# 3121665, 15th May 87). Very interesting layout.
Best Regards.

Absolutely cool!
And the 1390131 is the best Model M, in my opinion.

Someone on eBay has been selling some of those alternative keycaps. I grabbed a red Total key and a solid black numpad Enter key.

Yea, he was parting them out and I was like these keys should stay together. I purchased the remaining keys out of two boards so I
could make one complete board. I was using photos he had but he can't find the original photos of the boards when he first found them in a computer store he purchased after its closure.
