Nothing more than a slight detail, if i may, Norman. As per my post 31#, the star was replaced by a crown in 1893 .

Hi Fernando,
My post was in response to Jim's statement that the ELG star in an oval was from 1810 to 1853 thereby limiting pistols with this stamp to within those dates whereas the date range is in fact greater.
My Regards,
Norman.
