[QUOTE=Dean Romig;424933]I would expect to see such escutcheons on a high grade such as yours.
. To clarify my above statement for those who think I may have said something other than what I typed, I will simply say - I sure wouldn't expect to see such a fine example of craftsmanship on anything but the highest grade(s). I've never seen such an elaborate escutcheon! .

Wayne, this appears to be another example that is close in style to your gun. This being an 1876 Grade 6 Lifter.

Thanks Randy. It appears they were used on a few Grade 6 guns built in the mid 1870s.
