Very fine. The revolver retains 75% original nickel finish. Traces of gold finish remains on the hammer and one cylinder flute has 98% gold finish and another retains 60% original gold finish. The remaining three flutes have a smooth dark gray patina. Most of the gold finish remains on the sides of the trigger. The grips excellent with only light handling marks. The markings and engraving are crisp and clear. The action is excellent.
