The original London proof on the barrels is 1868-1875, making it likely the barrels are blued damascus.

Thank you all for your input. 1885 from old army navy notes. 30” barrels. The notes have Osborn written on them. Maybe a Charles Osborn gun?

This is a cool video of their old catalog - go to 3:45 and there it is.

I am going to guess it is model 200 as it has the fence.

Osborn definitely made guns for other manufacturers as they have a colt page as well, so it would fit with the Army Navy rebranding.
