Cyl has six chambers and hand engraved stagecoach hold-up scene roll marking with engraved borders and blank panels between the stop notches. All the serial numbers on the bottom of the revolver are accompanied by a small “I” which indicates it was to receive extra polish and ivory grip. Several of the serial numbers appear to have been re-stamped with the last two digits on the cyl having been engraved. Wedge is a replacement, engraved to match with the re-stamped number “7718”. Accompanied by an orig burgundy velvet lined Colt casing compartmented in the bottom for the revolver, a small double sided, all brass eagle & stars flask, a brass “Colts Patent” two cavity mold without sprue cutter, a tin of caps, a packet of five combustible cartridges and a non-functioning key. CONDITION: Very good. Overall revolver retains a cleaned silver finish with a few light nicks & dings that may have been polished out; cyl has been cleaned to bare metal with fine pitting and shows about 90% stagecoach hold-up scene; trigger guard & backstrap retain traces of orig silver being mostly a medium mustard patina. Grip has a few age lines, but is completely sound and shows a beautiful, mellow ivory patina. Mechanics are fine; strong bore with moderate pitting. Case has a couple grain checks in the bottom and is missing a small chip around a knot in the right end with light nicks & scratches and retains most of its orig varnish; interior is lightly faded in the top & bottom with moderate soil in the bottom and solid partitions; flask has a few small nicks & dings with a partially open seam; mold has light nicks & dings with sharp, clean cavities and a dark mustard patina; other accessories are fine. 4-47894 JR147 (7,500-12,500) – Lot 3020
