Manufactured c. mid-19th century with a blued smoothbore octagonal barrel with a German silver post front sight, notch rear sight, and Birmingham proof marks; casehardened cylinder with Birmingham proof marks, and casehardened frame with scroll and border engraving, bar hammer, and "6" marked on the underside behind the trigger. The grips are checkered. The mahogany case has brass escutcheons, wine colored lining, a small powder flask, ball mold with ramming arm, loading/cleaning rod, screwdriver, punch, Eley cap bag, and cap tin.

Fine with 80% plus original blue finish remaining on the barrel, 75% original case colors remaining on the cylinder, strong traces of original blue remaining on the frame which otherwise displays gray and brown patina, distinct engraving, minor oxidation/pitting, and mild wear. The grips are also fine and have crisp checkering and mild handling wear. Mechanically fine. The case is very good.
