No Serial # or proof marks on Barrel Flats?

I am looking at a Grade 3 mfd in 1895 that has no markings at all on the barrel flats... no serial number, no proof marks...nothing! the barrels are damascus and that pattern just flows through onto the barrel flats. Not sure what to make of this. Top of the bbl is stamped but picture I have is not clear..I can only read the last word (Fulton) so that makes it look like it came out of the Smith factory. Is this a possible legitimate set of barrels/configuration, or should I run away from this gun?
