Actually, the 1885 High Wall and Low Wall are considered to be two different models. The High Wall version was built for more powerful cartridges while the Low Wall version was chambered for all of the various rimfire cartridges and most of the pistol centerfire cartridges. As for different serial number ranges for each type, really don't know....

Are we talking original 1885 or the modern version?

The originals have only one serial number run, available from 1885-1913.

After 1913 and for the modern versions, I don't know if anybody knows.
