The underside of the barrels are the breech are marked ". 845 . 1853. GB". Comes with a wood case with engraved brass mounts, "GASTINNE-RENETTE/ARQR DE S.M. l'Empereur/A PARIS." in gilt lettering, and a suite of loading and maintenance tools.

Fine with crisp engraving and carving, distinct markings, gray/brown patina on the barrel, silver-gray patina on the lock and mounts, bright original niter blue on the trigger, and minor overall age and storage related wear. Mechanically excellent. The case and accessories are fine with some minor wear and the key hole escutcheon coming loose.
