It is correctly marked “ADDRESS COL. SAM COLT NEW-YORK U.S. AMERICA” along with “COLT’S PATENT” on the left side of the frame. Nice overall aged patina metal with fine walnut grips and brass back strap and trigger guard, shows good mechanical condition as well. This revolver has a Civil War manufacture date of 1863.
