I have .32-20 first model (model of 1899), serial number 90, lettered as October 26 1901, 6.5" barrel, nickel finish, Black hard rubber grips.
She's pretty rough, but all there.

My 1899 .32-20, #4287, shipped in September 1901. Yours must have been built and stuck in the back of the vault and the ones built afterwards sold before yours, unless a 6 1/2" nickel wasn't popular. Who knows for sure, after all these years?
