Initials on barrel are difficult to read, but are "C.B" which consignor notes indicate as being Charles Baum of Schuykill County Pennsylvania circa 1825. Fixed sights, with zig-zag and star engraving on the top flat of the barrel along with a faint makers mark. Lock plate is signed "Henry Packer/ WARRANTED" below the fenced flash pan, with a scene of two game birds in a field to the left of the hammer. Full length stock, with brass tip, silver half-moon and scroll panels on the forearm, "MSH" inscribed brass reverse plate, vine engraved brass strip and silver half-moon on the raised cheekpiece, brass buttplate and brass patch box with cut-through designs.

Good, the metal a brown pattern, showing bright edge wear and scattered pitting and handling marks. Stock is very good, with scratches, dents and a few small chips. Mechanically good.
