Best Answer

Iver Johnson began making top break revolvers in about 1871. The "Owl's Head" was their logo. We cannot give you a date, as a serial number was not unique to only one firearm- it would depend on the model. Value is based on exact make, model and condition (you only gave us the make). Value of average specimens is usually modest, around $75-150, depending again on condition and model. Some were made for black powder cartridges, and should not be fired with modern smokeless ammo.

such hand guns are often referred to as 'Saturday Night Special' in that they are not safe to shoot with modern ammo.
