Exactly what information are you looking for?
There's not much written on the No. 2 Old Army. Even Jinks and Neal only have about three paragraphs about them in their book. There is no indepth reference on the No. 2 but there are a few books that you can pick up bits and pieces.
I will say that your production date is more likely 1864 instead of 1863. I have one like yours in the 22000 range that has a presentation inscription dated April 28, 1864, and Jinks and Neal show the serial number range for 1864 as 15860-29358.
