Colt Silver Star?

I've got chance at a deal on a polished stainless Government model. The left side of the slide is emblazoned "Silver Star." Serial number sequence is SS004**.

It appears to be 1983-1987, since it has a Series 70 bushing, but a Series 80 safety setup. I'm not concerned with monetary value, but does anyone know when they were made, and how many?

I believe there were 1000 made in 1985 to commemorate Colt's stainless 1911's. They are basic Government models with high polish stainless finish and custom rollmarks.
