Didn’t take pictures. All matching serial numbers, five digit SN.
Grips are excellent, the rest is a little rough. I’d say about 80% of the nickel plating is intact, bore is clean and rifling is sharp but the cylinder doesn’t clock properly and the auto eject doesn’t.
Any value besides as a parts queen?
There’s one on GB right now that’s much worse with a single bid of $30ish, and googling turns up values for better examples between $50 and $150 on some other forums.
Any old break top collectors care to chip in?

If something like that was dumped out of a paper bag onto a bar, and I had a few beers in me, I might be loose enough to offer a $20 for it.
