serial #74814, 38 S&W, 3 1/4" ribbed round barrel with a bright near excellent bore. The metal surfaces of this third model revolver are embellished with lovely period New York-style engraving featuring wide flowing foliate scrollwork with fine line detailing and punch-dot shading and some light zigzagging along the sides of the barrel. The embellishments remain completely intact and quite crisp. The metal surfaces retain about 80% period silver finish showing some light overall flaking to pewter gunmetal that is blending in very nicely with the remaining silver, there are a few minor pinprick pits along the barrel and the silver is taking on a very attractive dark tarnish. The triggerguard and cylinder show faint remnants of gold wash and the barrel address remains crisp and clear. The un-numbered smooth mother-of-pearl grips remain in near excellent condition showing some light handling marks. All of the serialized parts are matching, barrel-to-frame fit is solid and the action seems to function well mechanically. A very fine revolver in a handsome silver finish. (13B11739-110) {ANTIQUE} (1500/2500)
