Does anyone have a serial number list for Baker hammerless guns?

I just picked up a Paragon, fine three stripe damascus, three pin lock, nicely engraved, in very fine original condition. Serial number is 622. When was it made?

Thanks, Mal

If this is a W.H.Baker paragon the date is 1900,according to Vorisek.
Close enough as it's hard to say without the Factory Records. My information suggests 1901, but some guns seem to have been finished slightly out of sequence.

I think he means pre-1898.
