Help Identifying Old Rifle

Hello, I received a rifle from my Grandmother and I have no idea what type or where it is from. I was wondering if some of you would be able to take a look at these pictures to help me identify this.

To me it looks like a smooth bore non military issue since there the top of the barrel has a lot of engraved detail including a star design (see picture). It also has a hidden compartment in the stock behind the gold shield which might be for the blasting caps? (if that's even the correct term lol)

I have a few more images but it would only let me upload 3. Please let me know if any other angle / image would help and I'll upload more.

Thanks for your help,
-Russ
