Manufactured in 1863. The top of the barrel is marked with the one line New York address and "COLTS/PATENT" on the left side of the frame. The cylinder is roll engraved with the Texas naval battle scene. The complete matching serial number is marked on the barrel, frame, trigger guard, back strap, and the matching partial number "1986" is marked on the cylinder, wedge and cylinder pin. The left side breech end side of the barrel is marked with an "S", "C" and "L" on the cylinder and a "W" on the right rear of the barrel, behind the trigger guard bow and on the top of the back strap. The back strap and recoil shields are cut for a shoulder stock. Blue finish with casehardened frame and loading lever. Fitted with a one-piece smooth walnut grip with a boxed "WHR" cartouche on the left side and "JT" on the right side. Comes with a Model 1860 Army revolver flap holster and leather belt a brass buckle.

Very good plus. The revolver retains 20% original blue finish concentrated mainly in the protected areas with a smooth mottled brown patina on the balance. The brass has a semi bright appearance. The cylinder scene is 95% visible. The grip is very fine with some lower edge wear, a small chip on each toe and a few light handling marks, and crisp cartouches. The markings are crisp and clear. The action is excellent. The holster rig is very good with some leather flaking on the flap and some minor age and flex cracking on the body. The belt is fair with a couple of small tears, edge wear and age cracking.
