This is a solid example of a very scarce original combination leather shoulder stock/holster for the Colt Model 1905 semiautomatic pistol. It is estimated that less than 500 of these rare Colt produced leather combination shoulder stocks/holster were ever produced with only a very few even know to exist today. The primitive leather tanning process back then turned out to be extremely harsh on any leather product, making any example extremely rare today. There were two different lots of Model 1905 pistols that were produced to use this specific holster. They all had their back straps machined (grooved) on the outer rear edges of the frame to allow the brass mounting hardware to be slid into place. This specific piece has the original/unmarked large brass hardware on the front end of the holster with the latching mechanism on the underside. It has a single large flap on the front and a single belt loop on the rear that is held in place via a small metal buckle. The holster itself measure approximately 11 inches long by 6 inches wide and is completely unmarked.Read more

1864-S Liberty Head Double Eagle. MS-60 (PCGS). CAC.
Mint State 1864-S Liberty Double Eagle1864-S Liberty Head Double Eagle. MS-60 (PCGS). CAC.A scarce uncirculated example of this important San Francisco issue. Pale medium-gold in color, the surfaces are pleasantly lustrous and show exceptional composure on the reverse. A shallow mark at star 4 serves as a convenient pedigree marker, and the complexion is otherwise without notable blemishes. The San Francisco Mint produced 793,660 double eagles ($15,873,200 face value) in 1864 according to government records. These circulated extensively on the Pacific Coast and it is believed that many were exported overseas. The 1864-S once ranked as a foremost rarity in Mint State; indeed, David W. Akers listed just four auction appearances of Uncirculated examples in his 1982 tome on double eagles. Since that time, additional Mint State examples have entered the market. In 1999, as a consequence of the underwater excavation of the wreck of the S.S. Brother Jonathan, which sank in 1865, newly discovered Mint State examples were added to the roster of known specimens, followed by more from the S.S. Republic treasure. It is possible that even more Mint State examples came from other sources. Presently, the Uncirculated population is estimated at 220 to 240 coins, a total that is still limited when compared to the strong demand that Mint State double eagles enjoy in today's market.Provenance: From the Fairmont Collection.PCGS# 8942.

Henry Nettleton Sub-Inspected Colt Single Action Army Artillery
The accompanying factory letter states this revolver was delivered to the U.S. government inspector at Colt as part of a lot of 150 guns on August 2, 1878. This revolver was probably converted to Artillery configuration by Colt circa 1895-1896 and retains all of the original serial numbered components. The full serial number is on the frame, trigger guard and back strap. The partial serial number "9172" is on the barrel and cylinder. The "HN" mark for Ordnance Sub-Inspector Nettleton is on the frame, trigger guard, cylinder and back strap. The barrel has the "W" mark for Ordnance Sub-Inspector E.C. Wheeler who inspected revolvers in the 49000 serial range during Nettleton's absence. "P" proof marks are stamped on the barrel and cylinder. The frame has the Colt three-date/three-line patent mark followed by "U.S." The barrel has the Colt "Style 3" address. The ejector rod has the early bullseye head. The hammer has civilian style knurling on the spur and may be a replacement installed when the revolver was altered by Colt c. 1895. The grip lacks inspection marks.Read more

Historic Colt Model 1908 Vest Pocket Semi-Automatic Pistol
Offered here is a historic Colt Model 1908 Vest Pocket pistol with a inscription related to famed General John Pershing, commander of the American Expeditionary Force in Europe during World War I. The frame lacks a serial number. The slide has the serial number “317893.” An accompanying Colt factory letter (photocopy) based on the slide serial number lists a Model 1908 with a 2 inch barrel in .25 caliber and blue finish when it was part of a three gun shipment that left the factory on November 28, 1922, and delivered to Albany Hardware & Iron Co. of Albany, New York. In 1922, General Pershing was serving as the Chief of Staff of the United States Army, a position he held from 1921 until he retired in 1924. At this time, Pershing held the highest rank possible for any living member of the United States armed forces, General of the Armies of the United Sates, which, as authorized by Congress, was bestowed to him by President Woodrow Wilson on September 3, 1919, in recognition of his outstanding service during WWI. At the dawn of America’s entry into WWI, President Wilson chose Pershing, who at the time was a major general, as the Commander of the American Expeditionary Force (AEF) after his first choice, Frederick Funston, unexpectedly died from a heart attack in February 1917. Pershing was promoted to full general, responsible for a combined professional and conscripted Army and National Guard force that ultimately totaled over two million soldiers at war’s end. As for this pistol, both sides of the slide have standard Colt markings. The engraved inscriptions are featured on the sides of the frame, and the grip panels must be removed to bring the inscriptions into full view. The right side of the frame reads, “Maj. Gen. John J. Pershing [faint star]/The Evening Post/Newport R.I./Ontario Ca.” The left side of the frame reads, “East Hartford/New London Ct.”. There is also a partially engraved letter on the left side of the frame near the top. The inscription is explained by the consignor: “[The] pistol must have had a special place in [Pershing’s] heart, for it is engraved with the names of places significant to him and of the paper, "The Evening Post". This paper vilified him, accusing him of using the political power of his father-in-law, Senator Warren, to secure his promotion to brigadier general over so many senior officers. It took several years before the paper made an apology.” We will allow the buyer to make up his/her mind to the validity of the claim. Indeed, Pershing received strong criticism after President Theodore Roosevelt nominated him for the rank of brigadier general in 1906. Congress approved the nomination, and Pershing skipped three ranks and over 800 senior officers. Most of the criticism ended after Pershing proved he possessed the talents worthy of a general. Items that make up the archive include the following: “General Pershing One Step” sheet music, a December 1919 dated Pershing letter to Brigadier General William Atterbury expressing his appreciation for the Transportation Corps, silver Pershing novelty spoon, several WWI era pinback badges and insignia, colorized portrait of Pershing in an oval frame, two “Final Report of General J. Pershing” (one standard, the other a presentation copy for the honorable John W. Davis), 8x10 framed photo of Pershing, 11x14 print of Pershing, framed Pershing signed photo portrait of himself, “General Pershing’s Official Story of the American Expeditionary Forces in France” and American Red Cross postcard bearing Pershing’s image.Read more

Scarce Engraved Double Action Pinfire Harmonica Pistol
The Jarre Harmonica pistols were developed in the late 1850s in Paris, France. This example is loaded via a 10-round horizontal block that automatically advances between chambers when the trigger is pulled. The action is double action only. This arrangement represented a significant increase in on-hand firepower for the era, even when compared to other repeating pinfire arms of the same time period, but they would have been difficult to carry conveniently while loaded compared to a traditional handgun. This interesting innovation was relatively short lived and thus high end examples are hard sought collectible firearms. It has a dovetailed blade front sight, no rear sight, smooth bore, "No 16 Jon Jarre a Paris" on top of the barrel in ornate script, find scroll engraving, and smooth walnut grips.Read more

Scarce Engraved Pair of Wm. & Jn. Rigby Irish All Metal Three
This pair of three barrel pistols of a most unusual design was crafted by William and John Rigby of Dublin, Ireland. John Rigby officially first opened a shop in 1775, and the family had shops in London and Dublin and remains active today as John Rigby & Company. John Rigby died in 1818 leaving the firm to his son William, and his second, son John II, joined as a partner in the early 1820s. They operated under their joint names until the firm became John Rigby & Co. in 1866. The brothers were particularly known for their pocket pistols, dueling pistols, target rifles, and fine sporting arms for Irish and English gentlemen. Some of their pistols were simpler turn-over/swivel-breech pistols, but others utilized this more complex design. Each of these pistols features three barrels in a triangular configuration that are all independently attached and a rotating striker disc on the hammer that must be rotated manually to the next nipple Rigby pistols with this mechanism have been recorded with six or more barrels on a single pistol. Each barrel is numbered 1-6. One pistol has barrels marked 1 through 3, and the other has barrels marked 4 through 6; these markings without a doubt make these pistols a pair. Each barrel is stamped with a British proof and seven-pointed star designs at the muzzles but are smoothbore. The sides of the hammer are floral engraved while the spur is checkered. The sides of the metal bodies feature very attractive floral scroll engraving with partial borders. The left sides are signed "Wm&Jn Rigby," and the right sides have "Dublin." The back strap is accented with floral engraved motifs. The pommels are pierced to form large lanyard rings; this is a rather rare and unusual feature not commonly found on pistols from the era. Most pistols that were designed for lanyards had small, separate rings on the pommels. Their overall length is only 5 1/2 inches. A lanyard would have made it easier to extract these pistols from the pockets of a frock or great coat in case the pistols were needed to defend against criminals. Crime was particularly rampant in Ireland during the 19th century due to serious economic distress and the famous Irish Potato Famine.Read more

Spencer Model 1860 Civil War Saddle Ring Carbine
Available in this lot for your consideration is a Civil War Model 1860 Spencer Repeating Saddle Ring Carbine. One of the most important and iconic cavalry weapons of the Civil War, the Spencer holds the position of being the first successful repeating long gun to be issued by the United States Government. To quote from the classic book, Flayderman’s Guide to Antique American Firearms, “One of the most colorful, widely used and popular Civil War firearms, the Spencer received the unique advantage and distinction, after a trial firing demonstration, of gaining the personal endorsement of President Lincoln. Toward the end of the Civil War, the Spencer established itself firmly as the main arm for cavalry use and was widely issued during the Indian Wars era also. It was a dazed, somewhat incredulous Confederate soldier, after capture by Custer’s 5th Michigan Cavalry at Gettysburg (only outfit armed with the Spencer that day) who is credited with the oft-repeated remark that ‘Spencers load in the morning and fire all day.’” The most desirable of the Spencer models is the true early Civil War Model of 1860. It is easily recognizable from the later, Post-Civil War, Indian Wars Model of 1865 by the fact that it has a 22” barrel where the later 1865 model has a 20” barrel. The Civil War Model 1860 also has six groove rifling, is chambered for the .56-56 Spencer Rim Fire cartridge which is actually .52 caliber and has a single sling swivel inletted in the butt stock. Later Spencer arms were typically .50 caliber. Only approximately 50,000 Civil War carbines were made from 1863-1865 and are found in the serial number range of approximately 11000 to 61000. After the Civil War many of these first series carbines had alterations done to change the caliber to .50 by sleeving the barrel and adding a magazine cut-off devise. Unaltered Model 1860 Spencer Carbines are considered quite rare and are always desirable in any condition. This carbine is number 50081 and has not been altered. All early Civil War Spencers were in high demand by the Union Cavalry and all were issued to troops where they saw very hard use. This original .52 caliber example still retains the original sights, 22” barrel with six groove rifling, saddle ring and correct single sling swivel in the butt stock. The top of the receiver retains the original markings: “SPENCER REPEATING/RIFLE CO. BOSTON, MASS./PAT’D MARCH 6, 1860.” All metal surfaces show a very deep and aged patina. These unique arms were loaded through a tube in the butt plate with seven rim fire cartridges held in place and pushed to the receiver by a spring loaded plunger/magazine tube that fit into the butt stock. This carbine still retains its original spring loaded magazine tube. The stock and forearm show handling, but are sound and unaltered. Overall, this fine original example shows no sanding of the wood or over-cleaning of the metal surfaces. While it shows normal battlefield use, it displays no later abuse or restoration. All mechanical function remains in good working order with strong springs and a tight action. The original ladder rear sight with slide is intact- these usually missing or replaced. Many Spencers were retained by returning soldiers who in turn carried them to the Western Frontier. One of the scarcest and most desirable of the entire Spencer line of rifles and carbines, the true unaltered Civil War Model of 1860 is extremely difficult to obtain in today’s collector market. This carbine qualifies as an Antique Long Gun, and does not require FFL Transfer or NICS Background Check. Serial Number: 50081.Read more

This is an absolute time capsule of a rare, late WWII, all parkerized Winchester Model 12 Trench Gun manufactured in 1945. This example is completely cased in the original long-term cosmoline preservative on the metal components and as noted is complete with the original Winchester factory cardboard shipping box correctly marked and numbered to this shotgun. Based on the serial number this is one of the very last ones produced, and it is in stunning original condition. The Winchester Model 12 and Model 97 trench shotguns were the primary U.S. combat shotguns used in WWII and Korea and even into Vietnam by both the Marine Corps and U.S. Army. Original, unaltered WWII examples are extremely rare today given almost all were rebuilt and reparkerized over time. The cosmoline preservative covers all the way from the muzzle to the rear of the receiver and slightly on the buttstock. It thick and heavy. Looking through the grease, the barrel is roll stamped with the two line Winchester address/patent dates followed by "-WINCHESTER-/-TRADE MARK-" and "MODEL 12-12 GA.-2 3/4 CHAM./CYL." The top breech end of the barrel has a barely readable small Ordnance Dept. "Shell and Flame" insignia. Both the barrel and front edge of the receiver are stamped with the circled Winchester "WP" factory proofmark. The right front end of the receiver is also roll stamped with the Ordnance "Shell and Flame insignia/U.S." This shotgun is fitted with a walnut stock and pump handle, and the left side of the stock is stamped with the boxed Ordnance "G.H.D." inspection mark and a small 1/4 inch U.S. Ordnance Escutcheon stamped below that. The serial number, "1035200", is roll stamped on the underside of the barrel extension and receiver. The ribbed forearm is covered in cosmoline, and the buttstock has a dry oil type finish and a black checkered hard rubber buttplate with the circular Winchester logo. The shotgun is fitted with the WWII pattern four hole, heat shield/bayonet lug. Interestingly the screws for the heat shield are not screwed all the way in, but they are covered with original cosmoline, same as the rest of the shotgun. The stock has a sling swivel and the larger bail wire sling swivel located on the bayonet lug. The lower sling swivel still retains the original small aluminum serial number tag from the Winchester factory that is stamped "1035200". As noted, this wonderful shotgun comes with the original cardboard factory shipping box with the original Winchester Model 12 label on the end with a non-matching serial number written in pencil, that has been crossed out. The matching serial number (1035200) has been written in pencil on the top of the lid. The box also includes the original instruction manual inside along with some of the original US Army preservative wrapping paper.Read more
