Hi, Joey,

Forehand and Wadsworth (F&W) made a series of inexpensive revolvers in the 1871-1902 timeframe. The company became Forehand Arms Co. after Wadsworth retired in 1890, so your gun was made after that. The F&W guns were somewhat better than a lot of the guns of the period, but were not of the quality of Colt or S&W. There is a mild collector interest, but guns such as you describe are seldom found in the absolutely perfect condition collectors like. Top value runs around $200. The gun has true sentimental value; dollar value is beside the point.
