Default Colt OfficersModel 38

I just purchased this gun at a local gun show. I am trying to date the gun and find out if Colt made this gun in Nickel. It appears to be original finish. I also posted this on the Colt forum. The patent #'s on the barrel are Aug. 5, 1884, June 5, 1900 and July 4, 1905. The model on the side of the barrel is officers model 38, it has a maltses cross before and after the roll mark.
The serial # is 4995xx.
