      I believe it is a black grade that either has had the paint stripped or else never made it to the paint booth in the first place. Regards, Ron.

              There appears to be a genuine gold wash/finish present on relatively unworn areas HOWEVER, I think this was an underplating for a standard originally Black finish. Gold or copper coloured platings under tombak Black WBs which retain most of their black finish are not uncommon (if you look carefully).

              Evaluate the item, not the story and not the seller's reputation!

              If you PM/contact me without the courtesy of using your first name, please don't be offended if I politely ignore you!

                I agree with Mike, indeed is visible gold finish. i don't think washed process.
                Non ferrous materials can handle the finish better if the original finish is off...
