This gun was quite often subjected to fake Wells Fargo markings so it should be checked by a professional appraiser to ensure the markings are original.

I am aware of the potential counterfeit W.F.&Co. markings and did have them authenticated by a pro. What is the date of the gun's manufacture?

By my info, the date of manufacture should be 1876.

Customer replied 344 days and 10 hours ago.

How much does the W.F.&Co. stamping add to the value or is that already estimated in the numbers that you forwarded? Sorry, I should have asked this before.

The Wells Fargo markings are already calculated into that value range.
