Class: Antique
Description:

This revolver was produced in 1890 and has the standard markings, nickel plated finish, niter blue small parts, and a grip carved with the bust of a man wearing a liberty cap and a star adorned cloak.

Rating Definition:

Very good as professionally refinished. 98% plus of the nickel plating and niter blue finish remain. There are some overall minor handling and storage marks, and some faint spotting. The grips have some slight age cracks and a nearly white, creamy tone. The hammer functions, but is out of time and needs work. The markings are nice and crisp.
