CONDITION: Excellent, retains 85% plus original blue finish on the barrel with some light wear areas around the muzzle, a lighter appearance towards the breech end with a few spots of light surface freckling. 95% plus vivid original case colors remain on the frame and components with some areas of scattered light freckling. Markings and edges in the metal are distinct. Wood is also excellent with attractive original raised grain, some scattered light handling marks and dings, defined edges and crisp cartouches. Mechanically excellent. As one of the few very best examples Rock Island Auction Company has ever cataloged, extremely difficult to improve upon, this extraordinary Civil War Spencer Model 1860 rifle would be the crown jewel of any U.S. martial firearms collection!
Estimate: 45,000 - 65,000
