This very rare deringer is one of some 20 pairs of a very limited production run mostly found with serial numbers in the 3750-4339 range, although a single pistol with serial number 5216 has been noted. For examples with similar engraving please see L.D. Eberhart & R.L. Wilson, The Deringer in America, Vol. II, 1993, p. 123, fig. 250, and L.D. Eberhart, The Collecting of Deringers Manufactured by Moore, National & Colt, 2011, p. 19
