Is it a .38 or a .32? I'd guess the former. If so, it's a .38 Safety Hammerless (sometimes called a "Lemon Squeezer"), Third Model from ca. 1895. And it's a BATFE Antique. It looks to be in very nice condition, but better quality pictures would be preferred.

It's a Third Model .38 Safety Hammerless "New Departure" revolver. It was shipped from the factory in 1893. Condition appears to be almost mint. Ed.

Well, not really...considerable wear on the left side plate, at the very least.
