I would kill for that 21.
I think the engraving was done by Nick Kusmit whom I have had an original Model 12 Pigeon grade-number 5 that was done by him. Also forgot to add that both barrels are 26" which I was hoping that one barrel was 28". That might hurt the value alittle too as most people like the longer barrels these days. I wouldn't saw off any wood either because the factory letter states it came with a 16 1/4 inch LOP.
