I think that mark is "BH" for Beistegui Hermanos (Beistegui Brothers). Google will give you more info on them than I can here.
Their guns were a bit better than most of the cast iron junk that came into the U.S. in the 1920's and 1930's, but still not of high quality and not very durable. I strongly advise against firing the gun with any ammunition. That gun certainly was not around during the Spanish-American War, so either your great grandfather had a different gun or confusion arose between a Spanish revolver and a Spanish-American War revolver.
In any case, it is part of your family history and heritage, and in that sense is priceless, even though it has almost no dollar value.
