That looks a very nice gun indeed and one I would be keeping hold of.
It is not often you see a Sidelock German gun - most seem to be the big
boxlock actions that can be a bit "clunky".

Questions
- are they Steel Barrels with the blue worn off or Damascus barrels ?
- Do you know definatively that the gun was made in 1890 ?

Re proof marks - German proof marks are not as easy but from my initial
readings it looks like it was only proofed for Black Powder.

I am trying to find another book which I think has more info in it
about German proof marks.

Hope this initially helps.
