Hi Larry - you have a Grade 2 from the period in which the Grade 2 hammer guns had about the nicest engraving.

You can determine the frame size by measuring in sixteenths of an inch the distance between firing pin centers - or as Bill Murphy points out, the distance from the edge of a firing pin hole in the breech face to the same edge of the other hole being an easier way to measure it.
