This gold rush era Colt remains in very good plus to near fine original condition with 20%-40% original blue drifting to a pleasing patina with crisp edges andgood markings. The cylinder shows most of its original scene with Ormsby signature clearly visible. The cylinder was lightly cleaned long ago and is a soft gray to brown patina. The frame, hammer and lever shows 30%-60%case colors going to silver with light tones of color. All matching visible numbers with very good plus grips retaining 80%-90% varnish with losses at edges and minor scratches and imperfection. A collector'sgrade early small guard we would rate as 8+ on a 1-10 scale. From the well-recognized Gary Wiemann estate collection. (Antique) Est.: $2,500-$5,000
