Model # for my Rossi

I picked this Rossi 38 sp up at a gun show last weekend & can't find a model number on it. Can someone help? Thanks, Bernie

On the yoke, where the cylinder attaches to the frame I found the number 135. Don't really know what that means though.

Probably model 68.

Looking at "https://www.gunvaluesboard.com/value-of-a-rossi-model-68-in-38spc-409524.html". The gun pictured has the same handle shape & frame as mine. This one is blued & has a longer barrel, but the rest seems to be the same as mine. They are calling it a M68. ???

It might be an 88 if it's stainless. I think the 68 is blue or nickel, and the 88 is the same gun in stainless.

Edit: found this
