Geno, if I recall, on the floor of the receiver H&H engraved "Royal" along with their name. Is there anything there? If you look at the pics posted by Derek you can see what I'm talking about.

Without going upstairs to double check in the Holland & Holland book by Donald Dallas, I believe the No.2 was a precursor to the Royal. The Badminton is a Scott gun that Holland & Holland brought in and finished.

No doubt, as the pictures prove, there are some plain Royals floating around out there.

The number 2 is a Royal, made by Holland on a Roayal action and not as highly engraved or finished. Not to be consused with the back action old Number 2 or the Dominion.
