Well my Vic Pioneer/Soldier(?) has a lanyard ring, a date on the blade (99) and no engraving plate.
Hmmm so is it a Soldier with a lanyard ring or a Pioneer with a date and no engraving plate?
Either way its a good knife.

Does your knife have a ring or a bail?? It seems as though you have a bit of an oddball there.
Some Pioneers have gotten dated blades if Vic made too many. The missing engraving plate is an oddity though. This Vic might actually be a little bit collectible (it is odd that the most collectible Vics are the oddballs and the ones with factory defects).

The Pioneers I've got with dated blades are the same. I also have an undated Pioneer with no engraving plate.
