Lock and bbl are both marked "DERINGER / PHILADELA". Mounts, lock, hammer and tang are florally engraved. CONDITION: Very good overall. Metal is grey overall with no finish. Crisp markings and engraving. Gun appears orig and complete. Mechanically gun functions well with rusted bore and discernible 7-groove rifling. Stock is sound retaining about 70% of old varnish finish with gap just rear of lock, small hairline opposite lock and between trigger guard and buttcap. 31377-20 JS (1,750-2,500)
