Matching serial numbers observed on frame, cylinder, inside of trigger guard and backstrap underneath grips, and on inside of both grip panels in ink. As mentioned above, this revolver is engraved in full coverage Class D engraving with scroll on a punchdot background with accenting wrigglework and sunburst on frame. CONDITION: Excellent+ and near mint, with virtually all of the original nickel plating remaining. Grips are in matching condition with no major signs of distress.
