Two Colt New Line Etched Panel Revolvers

A) Colt New Line 41 Caliber Revolver with British Proofs

Manufactured in 1876 with two line Hartford address on the top of the barrel, "COLT NEW 41" in an acid etched panel on the left side, the serial number on the bottom, several small British proofs throughout, and the left side of the frame marked "41 CAL C". It has a round blade front and frame groove rear sights along with rosewood grips. The left side of the grip strap and cylinder also have the matching serial number while the matching assembly number is marked on the loading gate and right side of the grip strap.

ConditionFair. Traces of the original finish remain with primarily a mottled gray patina and some areas light oxidation and slight pitting. The grips are good with some abrasions, dings, and a chip out of the right panel. Mechanically fine with mostly crisp markings. The etched panel is partially faded.
