Description:

Manufactured circa 1750. This attractive flintlock pistol has light floral engraving on top of the breech end of the barrel with gold inlaid highlights. The stock is adorned with a beautiful gilded brass trigger guard, left side plate and buttcap highly decorated with relief chiseled mythological scenes. The thumb plate has a relief chiseled floral design with the bust of a warrior and a crown. The lock is marked "SEBERT" below the flash pan. Brass blade front sight and mounted with a full walnut stock with a horn forend, two brass ramrod pipes and walnut ramrod with horn tip. The stock has relief carved bordering the trigger guard finial, ramrod pipe and barrel tang.

Rating Definition:

Good. The barrel has a smooth brownish gray patina. The engraving is clear, and most of the gold inlay remains. The stock is also very good with a repaired 2 1/2 inch crack on the upper right side of the forend, a chip ahead of the lock, and overall some minor dings and handling marks. All of the chiseling remains sharp. The action is fine.
