Pre-Civil War Colt Model 1851 Navy Percussion Revolver

Manufactured in 1857 with a cone front sight, the Hartford barrel address, standard cylinder scene and patent markings, hammer notch rear sight, "G" on the left side of the small trigger guard, varnished grip, and "MMC" hand scratched on the butt. The serial numbers match throughout.

ConditionFine with 80% original silver plating, 50% original blue finish on the barrel, traces of original case colors, aged patinas on the silver and exposed brass, brown patina on most of the balance, scattered mild pitting overall with light scratches and marks. One of the cylinder safety pins is flattened, but the others remain sound. The grip is fine and has strong original varnish, minor edge wear, and light scratches and nicks from handling and storage. Mechanically functions fine but slightly out of time.
