Oriental flint gun in ebony

Ebony "Puffer" wheel gun and ivory inlays with large round knob at the end of the stock. The letters engraved on the top side of the barrel can be interpreted as a P and a D surmounted by a crowned snake, label of Peter Danner's craftsmanship. The punch of the barrel has hints of Arabic letters.
