Factory Engraved Colt Open Top Pocket Spur Trigger Revolver with Highly Desirable Wexell & DeGress Grips

Manufactured in 1875, the top of the barrel is marked with the standard Colt two-line address flanked by Maltese crosses. Both sides of the frame have flourishes of floral scroll engraving. The full serial number is marked on the butt and bottom of the barrel lug. It is fitted with a very attractive pair of Wexell & DeGress silver grips with floral motifs on the left along with the 1874 patent marking and a lion motif on the right.

ConditionVery fine, retains 75% of the original nickel finish overall with the balance having mostly thinned to show an attractively aged brass. The grips are fine retaining strong traces of the original silver finish in sheltered areas with the balance showing mostly an attractively aged copper tone. Mechanically excellent.
