Default Last Fishtail

I was going through the safe trying to decide what battery to bring to the Southern. I had to move a few out of the way and picked up a 0 frame 16 70,xxx serial number with a fishtail top lever. Does anyone have a fishtail with a later serial number?

I had three 0-frame 16's in Grade 1 all in the 74,XXX range, all with the "fishtail" lever - I still have 1.

The other two had 28" barrels and I kept the one with 26" barrels because it is the only Grade-1 top-action made with 26" Laminated Steel barrels.

It is a wonderful little grouse and woodcock gun.
