This is one of about 10 NIGs Quality B with the coil springs and the only one known with the 1 1/2 (or 1 depending on time) frame engraving. There are guns and then there are guns. some know and some don't.

Rick
Never said anything about the value just listed some of the obvious shortcomings.
No matter how rare somebody, sometime, in the last hundred years abused the hell out of it.
All of that abuse takes its toll.

Pity the damascus barrels have been blued. Redo the barrels, raise the dents, re-cut the checkering and the rest of the metal and this gun will be back on the market later this year for several times this price. I saw a 20 Fox graded gun which sold in much the same condition magically reappear about a year later in factory original condition. Price was over three times the original price.
