Yes, apparently this is a design which is quite prevalent now that i search it out. The first photo is of a pistol of unknown origin and the second is from a Belgian double barrel (a bit fancier), both 19th century . The shot of just the hammers are modern made and they claim it is a copy of a 19th century design by an Ohio gun maker. So i guess the dolphin hammers do nothing in determining origin of the original weapon here.
