Marked "LINDSAY'S/YOUNG-AMERICAN/MAN'F'D. BY/J.P. LINDSAY - MAN'FG CO./NEW-YORK" on the right side of the barrel and surrounded by light scroll engraving. The left side has a military panoply with lion and eagle. The left side of the frame is engraved with a deer and the right with a dog. The pistol is loaded with two charges. The right hammer fires the front charge and the left hammer fires the rear. Lindsay's patent covered the trigger mechanism that controlled this sequence.

ConditionFine with smooth gray patina and light pitting. The attractive aged brass frame is very fine. The grips are very fine with most of the original varnish and show slight wear at the high spots. Mechanically fine.
