Look very very close to the beginning of the "W", you will see something that will make you think this is a restoration.

Even if it is a restoration, and I think it is, it is a beautiful gun. The question is, is it worth what they are asking?

Lots of restorations out there.

Yep. Some guns are so rare that even restored they command top dollar. I think the value is higher than the starting bid. Even though I would miss it dearly, I would trade my cased Borchardt straight across for it (and I would be coming out ahead in the deal).
