Manufactured in 1856. The revolver has a brass post front sight, the two-line New York barrel address, "COLTS/PATENT" (faint) marked frame, standard stagecoach scene on the five-shot cylinder, and matching numbers on the frame, barrel, trigger guard, back strap, cylinder, loading lever, wedge, and arbor pin.

Very good plus with original finish, a smooth brown and gray patina with some flash pitting, most of the cylinder scene remaining crisp, and aged patina on the grip frame along traces of original age darkened silver plating in the sheltered areas of the trigger guard. The grip is very fine with some high edge wear, minor handling marks, and most of the original varnish remaining. Mechanically excellent.
