This is a good cased Colt Model 2 Root Revolver Serial Number 12657 in .28 caliber with 3 and 1/2 inch octagonal barrel.
The Model 2 Root serial numbers range from #476 to #25000; #12657 is a very good example with perfect barrel address, the cylinder with matching number and the “cabin and Indian” cylinder scene mostly visible.
Beautiful high polish figured one piece original walnut grip. Barrel blue has faded but shows very little wear. Cylinder with visible scene and no finish. The frame retains much original glossy blue, more on left side than right (Rates 65%).
Grips with most original varnish with one chip at toe. Original mahogany case lined in green baize in good condition inside and out. Original mold marked “Colt’s Patent” with reapplied finish. Cap box. Associated bag flask with most niter blue on spring and some gilding on spout.
A very good Model 2 Root in a good case. Presents very well.
