Gorgeous rifle, and the dime really helps to scale it!

Now that is what I'd call a labor of love.
My hat is off to the craftsman who made it.

Bradshaw's engraving is more like carving considering the depth.

His web site has many more examples of his fantastic engraving and other rifles including a double Farquharson.

Very nice looking rifle, obviously a high-buck build,  but what about that dime inlaid in the forearm, yikes!?!?

He makes high end knives as well. Somewhere there is a whole series of images of the double rifle he made from scratch, every single part.

I believe that's the most beautiful rifle I've ever seen, in over 55 years of playing with guns - simply magnificent........
