Well At least it is a Parker. Your serial number looks barely legible on the guard. It will have a S/N marked on the water table and barrel flats. Looks to be a Grade 1. Being an earlier lifter, most were not marked with the Grade. The barrels should be marked with the Type of steel. Looks like a twist variant.

This Parker is very late 1870's or early 1880's
