Jerry, usually the Damascus pattern and contrast is better seen in the section under the forend where it has always been more protected. It's nearly impossible to see the ribband welds in the picture you posted.

Incidentally, it's on a 1-frame making it even a bit more desirable to some.

In your third picture in your opening post, when enlarging the picture we can see daylight between the barrel breech and the breech face of the frame indicating it is a bit off-face. That is something that should be professionally addressed if doing a total restoration.
