Description:

Manufactured in 1864. It has the one-line New York barrel address, standard patent markings and stagecoach scene, and matching numbers on the barrel, frame, trigger guard, back strap, cylinder, wedge and arbor pin.

Rating Definition:

Fine. The barrel retains 70% original polished blue finish thinning to a brown, and the cylinder retains nearly 30% original blue finish with the balance a smooth gray patina. Nearly all of the cylinder scene remains. The hammer, loading lever and frame retain 40% original case colors. The grip straps retain 98% darkened replated sliver plating. The grip is very fine with a number of minor dings and scratches and high edge wear. Mechanically excellent.
