Curious about this fine 8 bore Reilly for sale at holts. It's obviously a wildfowler - 13 lbs plus, 36" reproofed blued Damascus barrels. The ad says the action has been "brushed" but there are previous Reilly wildfowler's that were nickel plated. That would seem to make sense for a gun used over salt water. 33457 would date to mid-1892.
