Catalog Page: 199
Class: Antique
Description:

Manufactured 1888-1902. Near full coverage New York style floral scroll engraving on a punchdot background. Silver plated frame and barrel with gold plated cylinder and triggerguard as well as pearl grips. Matching serial number on the cylinder and butt. Provenance: The Dr. Gerald Klaz Collection

Rating Definition:

Very fine, retaining 95% plus original silver plating and 60% plus gold on the cylinder and triggerguard, all of which shows some darkening from age. The grips are also very fine with a few tiny chips along the edges. The front sight pin is replaced with a wooden pin. Mechanically functions fine, however, the safety does not engage.
