Number one restored is my guess but it is just that. If you told me they both were original I'd believe that as well. They both look so nice I don't care if one is redone or not. They just look "correct" and is that not the purpose to restore a gun to make it look right. Refinish makes it shiny, restore makes it look like it came from the factory to as much as possible.
