Welcome to the Forum. Rough condition 38 DAs are not worth much. There were over a half-million of this revolver made and value is quite low except for high condition guns. A picture would help determine if your revolver is worth repairing, but I might suspect that there may be some reasons why the hammer was taken out. Also, you have a 3rd Model and will need a hammer for that model. There were 5 different 38 Double Action revolvers and changes were made in the hammer design.
If nothing else, you could make a nice display box and put it on the wall.
Let me add that the ship date would be in the mid 1880s.
