Lot 181
Musket. Made in Canton, Mass., probably 1810-20. Stamped on the lock is "D. Dana" above "Canton." The lock is a little more ornate; also, rifle has brass trigger strap and brass lock cover, and other brass fittings. Unlike the military models, there are no lugs for a carrying strap. The only visible proof mark on the barrel is a "P"; stamped "E.H."on the stock where the lock cover is. Nicely refurbished and in full working order. Appears complete. One small split at the base of the ramrod, although there are pins scattered throughout the stock for strengthening. Overall length 57¼ inches.
Estimated Value $600 - 800.
