I rode up to Rock Island today to look over the guns. They had the two guns you reference sitting side by side on a table. The condition on both was almost identical with the only discernible differences being the engraving and the color/figure of the wood. I was sure I must be missing something, but I could not figure the estimates either.
Not too many nicer doubles in this sale, but enough to look over and covet.
