Congratulations Ivo, dzeferdars are not easy to find at least in my experience, and this is a really nice gun with a superb, older barrel. You may have seen the one I posted some years ago in the Traditsia Bulgarian forum, with a somewhat similar barrel. Here are some close ups of the silver wire inlay on the barrel and also one photo of the trigger guard. From your photos I cannot tell if the silver inlay on yours was lost or just tarnished to the point where it blends with the steel of the barrel - cleaning it with a product for silver may bring it back out. I also suspect that the little round holes on your barrel once held corals.

Regards,
Teodor
