Colt Model 1862 Police Percussion Revolver

Manufactured in 1869. The one-line "NEW-YORK U.S. AMERICA" address is on the top of the barrel. The left side of the frame is marked "COLTS/PATENT," and the left trigger guard shoulder is marked "36 CAL." The complete matching serial number is marked on the barrel lug, frame, trigger guard, and back strap. The cylinder pin is marked with the partial serial number "1615," and the cylinder has a partial serial number "615". The wedge is not numbered. Brass cone front sight and hammer notch rear sight. Blue barrel and cylinder, casehardened frame, loading lever and hammer, and silver plated brass grip frame. Fitted with a varnished one-piece walnut grip.

ConditionVery good. The barrel retains traces of thin original blue finish with a smooth mottled gray patina on the balance. There are several of dents on the barrel, mainly around the wedge. The remaining metal surfaces have a smooth dark patina with a few minor dents on the cylinder. The brass for the most part is bright and there are traces of the original silver plating in protected areas and several little dents on the butt. The grip is also very good with much of the varnish remaining, showing some minor wear and chips on the lower edges, and overall some scattered minor dents and dings. The markings are clear. The action is excellent.
