Default circa 1850's damascus barreled side by side muzzleloading shotgun

I have in my possession a muzzleloading damascus barreled shotgun. The gun is very reminiscent of the period with a straight stock, double hammer percussion, wooden ramrod. There are no visble markings/ stamps/name regarding the manufacturer. The only distinguishing characteristics on the gun is hand checkering on the grip, an early version of a monte carlo stock, and a very intricately carved head of what looks to be an of an african male with headdress. Definitely not of a native american indian. Any clues on how I would go about getting more info on this piece? Thanks
