Compared to the previous rifles, this pair of William Moore - Greener centerfire elephant guns firing 0.577-inch round-nosed bullets, made in London in 1875, has been further embellished with many ornaments.
This is not uncommon in civilian weapons, especially for people of high status or wealth. They naturally wish their weapons to stand out, thus they spend extra money to decorate them.
Due to these decorations, the pair of double-barreled elephant guns in front of Leonard and others now is significantly more valuable and pricier than the standard versions.
"If they were mass-produced, the two pistols would add up to around 2,500 pounds. But now, these pistols with exquisite sculptures are quite expensive. If there are no issues, they could probably sell for about 4,000 pounds," Leonard soon gave an estimate.
"That is to say, just the firearms here are worth over 10,000 pounds." Upon hearing Leonard's quote, Miss Blake became excited.
