I'm certainly no expert on engravers but I was thinking the same thing. Different time, different style, yet similar, especially the heads.

Grade 3 and above were usually plated. That is a very nice one Calvin. Please send me a PM with details.

Would you care to sell me those hammers?

First, sorry for the quality of the photos. The first three pics are of my DH 10 gauge circa 1891. The next three are pics of my recently purchased DH 12 gauge trap gun from 1904. This gun has 32 inch full and full Titanic Steel barrels and still breaks clays like it did 108 years ago (as long as I do my part).
