Correction, serial number is 102754 and it is a 20 gauge. Attached are several pics and one showing a 20 gauge shell in the barrel. We would not be shooting modern ammo in Damascus barrels, ONLY to show it is a 20 gauge. My father said the story behind the gun included Jay Gould, but he passed away in 1892 and the gun serial number puts the mfg. date at 1901. So doubt the story has merit. Thanks for helping me with this....
