Excellent. 99% original nickel remains showing traces of a cylinder drag line. The Colt medallion grips are very fine with limited handling marks and a collector type label (left side). Mechanically excellent. The case and sleeve are very good with some areas of the paper that have come unglued. Provenance: Robert E. Petersen Collection
