Jake,

The Parker was manufactured in 1905.

It's possible the damascus barrels were blued which would hide the pattern.

Check closely the serial numbers found on the water table, trigger guard tang, side of the barrel lug, and the forend iron, they should all match. What does the rib inscription read, does it say damascus steel or vulcan steel? Does the configuration match that which Brush Buster stated? Detailed closeups would help of the water table, rib inscription, and barrel flats.

The frame size is the number on the bottom of rear barrel lug.
