Mine has the Bisley grip. I'm really fond of this one. When I look over my collection of revolvers with the thought of which one would be the keeper if I could have only one, this one is a top contender. The leather is a Barranti EK#5, correctly handed of course.
Chronographs, bore scopes and pattern boards have broke a lot of hearts.

I think I paid $589 or so new when I bought mine. The various Lipseys I've seen for sale used in recent years have been in the $5-600 range. In today's market I wouldn't be surprised to see them fetch all of $600 or more.
Recently sold one of the stainless guns for around $650 if memory serves, but it’s none too reliable of late. Had Dave Clements make me a 44 on the anniversary 357 flat top back when they were new. Beautiful gun and a great shooter. Daughter had already claimed it when I go belly up.
I have a stainless Ruger Bisley chambered in 45 Colt. It’s one of my favorite handguns to shoot. Ross Seyfried wrote a good article that can be found on the web about the Lipsey 44 Special flattop specifically asked about by the OP
I don’t have a picture hosting service but my Bisley looks just like that only stainless and a 5.5” or there abouts barrel and I have a matching Cold Steel stainless Trail Master.
