Approximately 5,800 percussion revolvers were manufactured circa 1863-65 by Rogers & Spencer of which 5,000 were purchased under a U.S. Ordnance contract for 5,000 revolvers with 1,500 to be delivered by the end of April 1865 and the balance by September of 1865.

Very good with original finish, mild oxidation/pitting, and general mild wear. The grips are fair with chips and hammering marks on the butt. Mechanically fine.
