Say team, pictures to follow can anyone help identify a hammer gun--top barrel and locks say F. Zeischka in Waltsch (I think Belgium) barrels appear to be wire, highly engraved with gold inlay on barrels locks and hammers.

Büchsenmacher/Puškar Franz Zeischka in Waltsch/Valec listing in Fraktur. Seems that cat was active as early as the 1850s.

IDing barrels as Belgian should be easy based on proofmarks.
