Definitely a Boston best....in the pictures the damascus barrels look like they took quite a ding at the top of the chambers.

With the help of PeteM I have found out some more Info. "Intertwined EL in script" is Belgian Prvoisional Proof. "18.2" is
bore measured in Millimeters. "Crown over A" is the Mark of
Ancion Dieudonne & Co(1842-1867) which in 1867 1873 was Ancion
Dieudonne & Fils-the barrell maker. The gun has rebounding Hammers. This would put the gun in the earley 1870's.
Thanks to All
Bill

Nice find Bill!
Joe,
Even the Schaefers with no engraving have high grade wood and exquisite fit/finish.

Bill,

Glad it was helpful for you. I have posted my listing of Belgian maker's marks on-line.
It is compiled from many sources, including a list for Joe Vorisek, LittleGun, "Qui est Qui" and others. The list is still growing with over 1,000 entries.
