Peter Harris Clocks & Militaria has dated this Colt 1860 Army Revolver to the 19th Century.
The round barrel bears the correct factory address “COLT’S NEW-YORK U.S. AMERICA”. The cylinder retains worn remnants of the original naval engagement scene. All major components retain matching serial numbers, confirming originality throughout. A small “H” sub-inspector’s stamp is present, consistent with U.S. Government inspection.
Fitted with original one-piece walnut grips, showing the faint outline of the U.S. Army inspector’s cartouche to the left grip flat. Brass trigger guard and backstrap with correct period patination. The percussion frame remains unconverted, with no evidence of later alteration or refinishing. Action in good working order with correct lock-up.
