Manufactured in 1986. It has standard markings among the deep relief acanthus scroll engraving, dual gold bands on the breech and rear edge of the cylinder, gold borders and accents on the distinctive bird's head grip frame which has a spur at the top that also has gold inlaid borders on the side, and two-piece grips. The grip frame and frame have the matching serial numbers, and the partial serial number is on the front of the cylinder.

Near mint as professionally embellished with 98% plus blue and casehardened finish, all of the gold inlay, some slight surface oxidation, cylinder rotation lines and flash marks, and some light handling marks. The grips are near new with attractive natural tones. Mechanically excellent.
