Colt Model 1862 Police, .36 cal. percussion, New York scroll engraved, silver and gold plated with "Tiffany" grips showing Mexican snake and eagle, serial #2426. This pistol was recently discovered in France and thegrips are absolutely genuine to the 19th century, and not 20th century copies. The metal surfaces show 30-60% original silver and gold with a heavy unpolished and natural patina, showing some erosion and normal metal aging and absolutely no cleaning. The grips are beautiful and crisp showing the quality that the 20th century copies just can't match. The markings are good, action not quite working, matching visible serialnumbers.
