These "J HENRY" pistols are generally regarded as made by Joseph Henry of Philadelphia in the early 19th century under contracts to arm American militias and as such are considered secondary U.S. martial pistols. The smoothbore barrel has an oval "P" proof towards the breech. The lock is stamped "J HENRY" at the center. The furniture is brass.

Good as reconverted to flintlock with dark brown patina, extensive mild pitting, attractive aged patina on the brass, and general moderate wear. The refinished stock is also good and has cracks and repairs concentrated in the forend, an "X" carved on the right side of the wrist, and moderate scrapes and dings. Mechanically fine.
