Manufactured in 1876, the barrel is marked with the standard two-line address on top flanked by Maltese crosses, "COLT NEW 41" in an etched panel on the left, and small British proofs on the bottom and on the cylinder. The left side of the frame is marked "41CAL C" and with a "C" over a Rampant Colt. The matching serial number is on the left of the grip frame, bottom of the barrel, and partial ("751") on the rear face of the cylinder. It has standard features and is fitted with a pair of smooth rosewood grips. Includes a plain modern box that is labeled to match the gun. Provenance: The Don and Carol Wilkerson Collection

Very fine, retains 75% plus of the original blue finish and 85% plus of the vibrant original case colors with the balance having thinned to mostly a smooth grey patina and the etched panel remaining crisp. The grips are fine with numerous light dings and scratches scattered throughout and retaining most of the varnish. Mechanically excellent.
