Rating Definition:

Very good with a mixed brown and gray patina overall showing areas of spotting, scattered handling marks and mild pitting. The wood is good with cracking at the reverse plate, right escutcheon and mild scratches and dents overall. The silver has taken on a well aged patina, especially on the accent plate and barrel bands which have turned nearly black. Mechanically very good.
