H. D. H. Herstal, Belgium, made 16-shot revolver with mandatory Liège proof stamps, serial # 1, cal. 7.65mm (.32 ACP) . The revolver is bright blue, and there are minor rust spots. The checkered grips show little use. The function works perfect in single only. With circa 80% bluing remaining, the very rare revolver is in fine condition. Actually this is in my 45 years collecting the first I have encountered with on 16 shots. The cylinder has two rows each for eight cartridges, which are staggered. The hammer has two separate firing pins. While one hits a cartridge in one ring, the other falls on an empty space in the second ring    $4,000.
