Austin, what was the overall condition? Very hard to tell from photos. Thanks, Ray

I was not able to handle the gun because the Gun Dept Manager/gunsmith works M _ F. It was at eye level in the rack and appearred to be pretty uniformly clean and dent free, with the ssbp remaining. I was able to see one side of the frame and the floor plate. Frame seems to be covered with fine engraving with the dogs on the floorplate charactaristic of the high quality engraving on early hammerless guns. It may or may not have rebounding hammers; that would have to be determined by examination. According to Charlie's serialization it is among the first 6 Hammerless twelve ga Dam 6 guns. Price tag said $20000.

Best, Austin
