The brass mounted partitioned case is lined in navy blue baize and contains a James Dixon & Sons powder flask, combination tool, bone container, oiler, wooden percussion cap container with caps, bore rod and lead rounds. John S. Roberts was likely a retailer.
CONDITION: Excellent. The barrel retains 97% bright original high polish blue finish with high edge wear on the balance. The remaining surfaces retain most of the bright original case colors, which are muted by the extensive excellent
coverage of the embellishment. The grip is also excellent with most of the checkering remaining crisp. Mechanically fine. The case is fine showing minor handling/storage marks and a loose partitioned wall on the otherwise very fine original lining. The accessories are all excellent overall. An impressive work of exhibition quality engraving on a revolver that will be a welcome addition to even the most advanced antique arms collection.
Estimate: 14,000 - 22,500
Stunning in all Aspects
