Civil War Era Colt Model 1861 Navy Percussion Revolver

Manufactured in 1864. Features one-line New York barrel address, German silver blade front sight, naval engagement scene on the cylinder, "COLTS/PATENT" double stamped on the left side of the frame, and "36 CAL" on the left side of the trigger guard. Matching serial numbers on barrel, frame, trigger guard, and grip frame.

ConditionVery good, retaining 20% original blue on the barrel with a smooth grey patina on the balance. The frame retains patterns of case colors with a smooth grey patina on the balance. The cylinder is covered in an attractive smooth grey and brown patina with the naval scene still legible. Traces of the original silver finish remain on the grip frame and trigger guard. Grip is fine with handling marks, dings and scratches, two gouges in the left grip and one in the right at the bottom, and most of the original varnish. Mechanically excellent.
