London Agency Colt Third Model "Thuer" Derringer

Colt's popular "New Deringer" was manufactured from 1875 until 1912 and proved to be the most popular of Colt's .41 rimfire pocket pistols. This example has the Rampant Colt stamp on the left side of the frame and the "crown/GP" and "crown/V" proofs on the bottom of the barrel that identify it as one of those sold through Colt's London Agency. The barrel also has the standard round blade front sight and the large italic "-COLT-" marking on top. The left side of the frame under the grips has the serial number and "EE." The right grip panel and bottom of the barrel are also numbered to the gun.

ConditionVery fine with 95% of the original nickel plating remains with some flaking at the muzzle and breech and minor handling and storage marks. The trigger has 60% of the original blue, and the hammer retains 50% of the subdued case colors. The grips are also very fine with attractive natural aged tones and some minor handling and storage wear. Mechanically excellent.
