This model was manufactured in 1868-75 with this example being in well above average condition and is well worthy of the finest collection. The top of the barrel rib has the standard one-line address/patent dates marking. The right grip panel is numbered to the gun. Matching assembly marks appear on the grip frame, cylinder, and barrel.

Excellent plus, retaining 99% original nickel finish with a few minor scratches and a cylinder drag line. 97% vivid original case colors remain on the hammer. The grips are also excellent with very limited handling marks and nearly all of the original varnish remaining. Cylinder does not rotate when action is cycled. A very attractive S&W Number 1 1/2 2nd Issue revolver.
