Excellent London Agency Cased First Year Production Colt Open Top Pocket Spur Trigger Revolver

Manufactured in 1871, the first year of production, this is an excellent example of a Colt Open Top Pocket revolver. The presence of British proofs on the cylinder and barrel, as well as the included London Agency labeled oak case indicate this revolver shipped to Britain. It has the standard Colt markings along with the British proofs, and the matching serial number is on the butt, bottom of the barrel, and inside both grip panels in ink. The back strap is non-factory stamped "K 66". It has standard features and is fitted with a pair of smooth rosewood grips. Provenance: The Charles Marx Collection

ConditionExcellent, retains 97% plus of the original nickel finish and 80% of the original nitre blue on small parts with some scattered very light handling marks and scratches. The grips are very fine with some reapplied varnish and a few light handling marks. Mechanically excellent. The case is fine with some light handling/storage marks and missing compartment knob.
