Default Nickel Plated Lifter

Gentlemen, I am posting two photos of a nickel plated Parker 0 grade that is owned by a person well known in the gun industry. The issue is whether the plating is original. He has asked me to look at the gun.

The factory stock book does not show plating, there is no order book. I look at the sharpness of the engraving and stamped letters and see no indication of polishing, which leads me to believe the plating is original.

We know that many guns, such as Mod 12's, were aftermarket plated.

Thoughtful comments are appreciated.
