Per Colt, the revolvers were manufactured in 1862 (A) and 1863 (B). They both have the standard markings and features, including matching numbers (no arbor pin number on B). They come in a hardwood case with a cartridge pack, Colt bullet mold, single sided eagle pocket powder flask, lead balls, spare nipple and spring, and an Eley cap tin.

Rating Definition:

Very good-fine with 25% original blue finish, traces of original silver plating and case colors, mostly smooth gray and brown patina on the balance of the steel, aged patina on the brass, slight pitting, and mild scratches and marks. The grip appears to have added varnish, is very good, and has some wear in the varnish on the left and minor edge wear. Mechanically excellent.
