Looking for help to sort out the grade of SN 41653. Some data points: 30" damascus, roll check, the number 2 is stamped next to the forend loop, LOP is 15" to a factory buttplate. I believe the date is 1896, but unsure of the grade, and think it may have also been a special order with a two barrel set and longer LOP. Unfortunately, I only have barrel number 2.

Stock has been refinished at some point, nicely, and the checkering recut, nicely. Original barrel finish. Auto safety feature disabled. On the face, and uncut.
