First post you said 62xxx then you said 64796. So, can we guess you mean 62796 ? If that's the case......................I'll give you a moment to go and find your glasses........................... Then that gun was an 1890 Damascus barreled 12ga. D grade (DH). Now the replacement barrels, made for the DH are on some mysterious gun whose serial number ends in XXX, and presumably, the 1890 DH receiver is lost, but hopefully mated back up with it's original Damascus barrels. Have I got it right? Hopefully the xxx gun is a VH so at least the barrel legend matches the grade. Is there a V stamped on the water table? (the flat horizontal surface which mate to the barrel) the 2 stamped on the bottom of the barrel lug is the frame size.

BTW, there's no way to tell when the Vulcan barrels were fitted to the 1890 gun, because Parker replaced barrels were marked for the gun they were made for. The Stock book for the original gun may have an entry indicating when this happened, but you would have to order a PGCA letter for the missing gun.
