What did I get?! Colt?

I traded a used Ruger Vaquero and a used Derringer for a Colt Stainles Government Model. I thought from talking to the guy that it would be just a standard no-frills gun in stainless. Instead, it looks like a modified example. The model number on the box is 01070xse. The gun has forward serrations, commander hammer, beavertail safety and polished flats with a nicely done rampant done behind the rear serrations. It has a standard safety (no ambi) and fixed sights. The gun has only had 100 rounds of hardball through it and looks absolutely NIB.

What is this model? Did I get a good deal. I wanted another 1911 anyway but was not expecting all the extra gingerbread on it.

Thanks for any information gentlemen.
Colt products are just something I don't know much about.

It sounds like a Colt XSE. From what I have read and understood its like a springfield Loaded model, colt is trying to keep up with Kimber and Springfield in bargin .45s. It just means that you got a customized colt 1991A1.
