The gun illustrated is a low grade Greener 12 Bore likely Grade D10.[A 10 guinea gun as compared to 150 guineas for their best gun] The proof marks are Birmingham black Powder in use upto 1904. The barrels are damascus and are bored 13 bore which means to be in proof they must not measure greater than .719 inches in diameter checked 9 inches from the breech. The chamber length is likely 2.5 inches but the proof mark is valid upto 3.0 inches.Both barrels have some degree of choke.The Elephant trade mark is found on genuine Greener guns.
The name Edwards is likely an owners/sellers name and has no relevance to proof.
If you care to provide the serial # the date of manufacture and exact grade can likely be determined.
