hi. I just acquired an 1866 model with a SN of 287XX. I looked up the SN and it looks like it was made in 1869. it has other inscriptions and I don’t know what they mean.

 

on top there is :           C Z (looks like they have overlapping letters.

on the side there is:     5  0 / ,, (doesn’t really look like that)

on the barrel: 1 A/,, C A/,,

any help would be greatly appreciated.

Welcome to the association. You will get a wealth of knowledge here, and meet some fun caratures.
Can tell more by seeing high quality well lit photos.
