"Luscomb 1893 Patent", grade 3, 5-string banjo, S/N 53, Circa 1893
This is an early example of the second Luscomb banjo design. Both have wood tone rings, but they are supported in different ways. This is a grade 3 banjo, which has fancier pearl inlay work than lower grade Luscomb banjos. The tailpiece on this banjo is not original.
