Yes, a classic specimen. Pre-early 1960s is right; most with legible date codes on the view mark are late '50s (that's when they were proofed for sale in Britain).

The view mark is found in front of the trigger guard (see photo); on yours, I can't make out anything, it may have fallen victim to the nickeling.
