This is a nice raised carved pistol with a .60 caliber bore and 6.5″ cannon style barrel. The original flintlock is marked; Dauphine Bergerac in two lines, ca 1770. It has all iron furniture, trigger guard with acorn finial and raised carving around the furniture. the walnut stock has raised carving behind the barrel tang and is in excellent condition.
I am trying to help an elderly neighbor determine the value of a Dauphine similar to the one posted, however my expertise in firearms is from WW1 to present. does anyone have an approx. value for the pistol posted
Rocky, I will send you an email .
