Real or Faux? Pawn Stars: D-Moore pistol - Owned by a black officer in the Civil war?

Pawn Stars and the Curse of Oak Island are two hugely popular TV shows which in my opinion are highly questionable as to to their "reality". Having said that, I was greatly intrigued by this episode. The revolver displayed has an engraving that I strongly feel is original to the gun. The engraving is in period script, with a matching patina among other identifiers. I have no idea what an un-engraved D-Miller pistol of Civil War vintage in good+ condition is worth. I'll wait for our gun experts on the forum to chime in on value. But I will tell you that whatever the forum experts say you can at least triple the value for the shown piece. Perhaps much more. It's a great artifact.
