Description:

The pistols have no visible markings. Similar designs are known to originate from France in the early 19th century. The blade front sights and furniture appears to be silver but may be paktong or another alloy. The stocks have raised floral carving at the top of the wrist, checkering on the wrists, and contrasting forend tips

Rating Definition:

Very good with gray and brown patina and mild oxidation on the barrels and locks, aged patina on the furniture, and mild overall wear. The stock is good and has a minor crack by the front ramrod ferrule, cracks and splices in the wrist, mostly crisp checkering, mild scrapes and dings, and crisp carving. Mechanically fine.

See "A."

Rating Definition:

Very good with a mix of gray and brown patina and mild oxidation on the lock and barrels, aged patina on the furniture, and general dings and scratches. The stock is good and has a crack in the forend, splice at the pommel, few small hairline cracks, crisp checkering and carving, and a few light scratches and marks. The left lock isn't properly secured at the nose and has some play, but the pistol is mechanically fine.
