Please help identify and value single barrel, bolt action shotgun.
Bore is 9mm, barrel is 21 1/2 inch long. The only visible markings are hand engraved into the right hand side of the stock in a circular arrangement, "EJECTOR" on the upper and "DLAOSE" on the lower (this last not clear) with a motiff in the middle similar to an elaborate letter 'j' over a letter 'c'. Also has number stamped in barrel and bolt 6884. The gun was originally aquired in Casablanca or Morocco on its way to French
Algiers where it was a small game provider for 40 years.It has been in OZ for forty years and our best guess at age is 120 years.
Ammunition as follows from front of can. Still have about 30 cartridges in excellent condition.
