age - i would say roughly 1870's maybe 1880's

value is minimumal, even though it was fairly well made, its also been well used, i would guess that the many many Birmingham makers turned out these guns for export by the tens of thousands.

You may get more information on doublegunshop.com, but most folks are going to mistake it for one of the poorer quality Belgium knockoffs which are just if nptmore as common.

if you made me guess i would etimate the cash value at a few hundred at best. They have some limited value as a shooter depending on the condion of the barrels and no real collector value.
