Catalog Page: 135
Class: Antique
Description:

Pinned bead blade front sight and fixed notch rear sight, with the two-line address and patent dates on top of the rib and matching numbers on the barrel, cylinder, and frame, with a five-pointed star stamped next to the frame serial number on butt. Factory refinish date, "2", "25" stamped under left grip panel. Fitted with a casehardened hammer and trigger guard, the grips have illegible writing by previous owner under right grip panel.

Rating Definition:

Very good as factory refinished, showing 95% of the factory nickel, with some light flaking along the edges, scattered scratches and a few light handling marks overall. Traces of bright color are present on the casehardened components, with most of the surface a bright silver or mixed brown color. The much weathered grips are good, with age cracking and fine color and grain. Mechanically fine.
