Ed - I show it to be a model 6, grade 99 or 99-S, 11 jewel, lever set made in a run of 500 in 1902. There were a total of 15243 made in 63 runs between 1893 and 1903. Hope this helps.

You have an Illinois 18-size, Lever-Set, Open-Face, 11-Jewel, Model 6, Grade 99 from 1902 production.

Hope this helps,

Mary Ann and Lin,
Thanks for the fast response. I guess I didn't count the jewels correctly!
