Too bad - it probably was originally manufactured with 'extra fine' "DD" Damascus barrels which are lovely to look at. However, an early hammerless BH with Acme barrels is certainly no slouch but very desirable.
The fact that the forend was likely replaced doesn't necessitate the replacement of the tip too - it mat still be the original. In fact, judging by your picture, it is of the early design, not like Remington would have made.
